Hang It All

Alluding to Charles and Ray Eames’s Hang-It-All coatrack (1953), an iconic work of design distinguished by an arrangement of colorful spheres that echoes models of molecular structures, Gabriel Sierra has stuck various pieces of fruit onto the prongs of a wall-mounted coatrack, thus replacing perfect geometric form with irregular organic matter. The result is a functionless object that references an inventive do-it-yourself culture in which salvaging and repurposing are commonplace.
