Stuart Haygarth

Designed in Hackney: these chandeliers by Hackney designer Stuart Haygarth were painstakingly assembled from found objects like discarded spectacles, plastic bottles or party-poppers.

Starting in 2004 I have been working on design projects which revolve around the collections of objects.

The objects are normally collected in large quantities categorized and assembled in a way that transforms their meaning.

My work is about giving banal and overlooked objects a new significance. The finished piece of work takes various forms such as chandeliers, installations, functional and sculptural objects.
