Bruno Torfs Garden
The most ordinary forest, in the hands of a talented person, can turn into a real masterpiece. It is precisely this fantastic area that is the unusual sculpture garden of Bruno Torfs, which is generously endowed with a variety of fictional characters. This park is located right in the middle of the Australian forest, near the town of Marysville in Gallipoli Park. With great love, it was created by a brilliant young man named Bruno Torfs.
Bruno Torfs, a talented sculptor, grew up in the South of America, but at the age of fifteen he moved to Europe with his parents, as the family was looking for better living conditions. A little later, Bruno became interested in traveling, and with each trip he took something useful for himself. From another trip around the world, Bruno brought back some drawings, which he later turned into magnificent sculptures or paintings. These creations of the artist, not only enriched mentally, but also helped to live, because this is how the young man began to earn his first money. A short time later, the sculptor's family moved to Australia, where Bruno Torfs became famous for his extraordinary sculpture park.
For five whole months, Bruno had to work on the creation of a sculpture park, which now bears his name. The residents of Melbourne did not even suspect that the dense forest surrounding their village could be filled with life and acquire a fabulous appearance. In the wonderful garden of Bruno Torfs, there is a place where a gallery is located, as well as other author's works. Among them are a variety of paintings, as well as small figurines.
Initially, there were 15 works in Bruno's legendary garden, which were sculptures of human height. But he continued to work, and now there are more than a hundred different fantastic Bruno characters in the forest.
There were rumors about Bruno's Garden among tourists, and he began to enjoy great success. Thousands of travelers visit this park every year.
As a test of fate, a massive fire swept through the local area in 2009. He destroyed many of the sculptor's works, along with the gallery. But the guy found the strength and slowly, with the help of the support of his family and friends, began work on the renewal and restoration of his creations. Bruno also received financial support from strangers who were fans of his work.
Now Bruno's Garden is open to the public, and no fire will stop a talented craftsman. And Bruno's sculptures will also bring pleasure, inspiration and evoke joyful emotions in their visitors.
