The Jesus Coat Hanger

— September 12, 2008 — Art & Design
Turns out Jesus hanging on the cross can be practical as well as religiously significant.

This coat hanger piece from Paris born designer Eric Morel is at once a religious relic, functional coat hanger and decorative piece. Morel originally trained as a product designer and has also worked on projects for clients such as Nike, Philips, Canon, Atos Origin, Fortis Bank, Unlimited DSM, and Hitachi.

Implications - The Jesus Coat hanger is a unique way to hang your coats. The Jesus model does not hang on a cross, but attached to the wall. The hanger is easy to use, as the coat just simply sits on top of the sculpture's head.
