Handcrafted by Mexico City–based artist Alana Burns, this hook translates her poetry practice into a functional sculptural object. Inspired by natural forms and personal memory, Burns works with shells, marine elements, and imagined shapes in metal, informed in part by her time at the Blunk House. The result balances delicacy and durability, referencing archaeological artifacts and coastal materials
