The Pearl Fryar Topiary Garden - Part 2

Pearl Fryar's junk art is whimsical and full of positive messages.
The fountains were not running when we were there but they were still marvelous to see.












I hope this artwork has inspired you to look at trash differently.

If you go, open Tuesday thru Saturday 10am - 4pm.
Pearl Fryar Topiary Garden

  1. This really makes you wonder how much stuff that normally finds its way to the landfill could be repurposed and provide benefits of one kind or another, either aesthetic or utilitarian.

  7. I would love to visit this. I absolutely adore junk art. People who make something valuable from recycled materials are often the most creative ones.

  9. I really do like a lot of junk art/eclectic sculpture! And many in this post I really find extra fun -- like the one using the horns and the first one with the old stove and pot. What a fun garden!

    1. That is a fun one. If you look closely, there is a crafted dog facing it. I should have taken photos of that piece individually. So cute!
