The Grayt Pineapple

THE GRAYT PINEAPPLE by Florida-based artist Rachel Herring is an 8-foot tall stainless steel sculpture of a pineapple designed to help small fish thrive. The inside of the piece will remain hollow, and the outline of the leaves on top will look like the sun when viewed from above. Herring has painted most of her life but has recently begun working with discarded wood and other found pieces. “What better way to bring new wildlife to the area than with a pineapple, the symbol of welcoming and hospitality,” said Herring, who has paired her love of working with her hands with mastering new tools and techniques.
