A clever name that seems to have inspired this art installation, the Refunc 'TOYLIT' takes porta-potties to a whole new, cultured level.
Located in South Africa, the Refunc 'TOYLIT' art installation is as unique as they come. Scattering the Mmabatho Stadium in Mafeking with illuminated, blue porta-potties, it puts on an eerie show at night -- especially when dancers emerge from them at random intervals. The installation was part of the Cascoland project.
