Our next stop was stepping inside the Garden of Isis which houses the grassroots art of Mri-Pilar. She has used the Florence Deeble house to display her art since 2002. It is a kind of culture shock to walk into the house as all the walls as lined with tin foil. There is a glare wherever there is a light source like a window!
This recycled toilet seat makes an interesting statement!
As you can see, she uses a lot of Barbie doll parts in her art. And, actually, as we were looking at her art, it really kind of grew on me. It isn't something I would want in my house, but I can see it being displayed in other homes or businesses!
Our guide told us that she was offered quite a bit of money for this piece of art which is displayed on the front porch, but she refused the offer. We were told that Mri-Pilar just returned from an art show of her work in New York City. I think it would go over well in New York.
