Taking a Clothes Rack for a Walk Sacar un perchero a caminar

Taking a Clothes Rack for a Walk documents a public performance carried out in Barrio Amón and Barrio Otoya, San José, Costa Rica. In the action, the artist walks through urban space pushing a coat rack loaded with Impossible Hangers—textile-intervened objects that defy the function of hanging. The performance transforms the domestic into the public, creating tensions between burden, display, and resistance, while the body and objects generate a moving archive. This audiovisual record captures the fragility and persistence of dissident bodies, inviting viewers to reflect on everyday gestures, bodily memory, and the relationship between bodies and their environment.
