Scrapture of Liberty
Egg Harbor City, NJ
The Art of Car Repair This interesting sculpture was made entirely out of scrap parts and metal garbage and it's supposed to resemble the Statue of Liberty. It is fittingly located outside of Peterson's Garage, an auto repair business, and was built by owner, sculptor, and mechanic Tom Peterson in 2007. Unlike the Statue of Liberty in New York, this sculpture is not made out of pure copper and doesn't stand 151 ft tall. This sculpture appears to use a lot of wheels, carts, and sheet metal. This actually could be used as another example of form vs. content. Both statues share similar form but the materials used to make the sculpture are different.
