folk arts - art gallery in Prison

FOLK ARTS are crafted of materials indigenous to the place from which they spring.
IN PRISON - where resources are slim to none, inmates create with soap, cigarette wrappers, toilet paper, pebbles, toothpicks, pop cans, white bread, and much more!

Toilet paper sculpture done by Keith Dwy. Prison toilet paper is the coarse cheap kind, malleable when wet, hard and durable when dried. One toilet paper artist, paroled to a half-way house, discovered that the relatively luxurious toilet paper available on the streets was too weak for his sculptures. He contacted an aquaintance on the prison staff to get the name of the institution’s supplier. LINK
