Carving Dead Trees Into Public Art

(via Amusing Planet) When trees in urban spaces die and show signs of toppling over or breaking off, the city might decide to remove them for the safety of those around. The remaining stumps then provide a wonderful opportunity for wood carvers to showcase their talent and liven up the neighborhood at the same time. Amusing Planet looks at nine towns that show us that not all pieces of public art have to involve steel, granite and concrete.
