An unusual sculpture garden is purposefully overgrown with plants and foliage.

Artist Marcello Cammi has created an outdoor sculpture garden to the delight of locals and visitors alike. The sculpture is little-known outside of Bordighera, Italy, but word-of-mouth does wonders once someone is in the town proper.

Update as of September 2019: The garden is no longer viewable as it was destroyed by a flood.
