Brutal was made as part of Estúdio Morto Vivo’s APPARATUS: Hooks Made from Waste exhibition in March 2026. The purpose of the exhibition was to make a hook from at least 80% repurposed, recycled or found materials.
This was the first large-scale item made in studio and it is made from all sand casted aluminum with repurposed hardware. The larger pieces were drawn directly into the casting sand and open poured, meaning no two part closed system like most sand casting is done. The suspended hooks were molded in beeswax and casted in sand. These hooks took a total of 30 hours to create.
Sold together.
