These sculptures are the creations of outsider artist Carole Alden-Breaux. Her background story is complex, she’s currently serving a prison sentence for shooting and killing her husband in self-defense in 2006. You can read about her story in a book called Cold-Blooded Kindness, written by by Barbara Oakley, PhD.
