Transcending Utility In Downtown T or C (#376)

Always something fun at Tin Can Traveler — unique fencing. Check it out.

Tin Can Traveler

When does something go beyond its function as a useful item to become something more?  An expression of artistic freedom ? Imaginative? Visionary? Fun?

Displayed for you here are a few of the utilitarian forms of fencing I found skirting the yards of some homes here in Truth or Consequences (T or C), New Mexico.  Fences that, perhaps, go beyond form and function to be…..something else….something imaginative, something expressive, something more.

Meep, meep!

Colored pencils?

Truck fence of old license plates

Wooded privacy… and beauty

Sticks and stones…..and wire mesh to hold it together

Hand-painted mural on metal sheeting

License bug?

Simply wood

Ever grateful ~  Annie
