Monumental Makeshift Toilet Fountains

This Fountian Installation is Made of 10,000 Toilet Bowls

A Chinese artist named Shu Yong has created a water fountain installation that's made of 10,000 toilet bowls. This monumental artistic piece measures 100 x 5 meters tall with distinctive urinals and sinks at the Shiwan Park, Foshan city in China.

This unusual installation took about two whole months to build with the idea of using discarded toilet bowls. The artist connected them to a water main that enables the water to cascade down at periodic intervals like a waterfall. Its incredible water works make heads turn as people pass by to view this extraordinary artwork. This fountain installation captures a new way to depict toilet bowls in a creative and bizarre artistic setting for the public to admire.
