Located in a small fishing village on Bayou Petit
Caillou in South Louisiana, the Chauvin Sculpture
Garden is a tour de force art environment created
by outsider artist Kenny Hill. Biblical themes and
imagery abound, over 100 life-size figural works
include portraits of the artist enduring heartache,
seeking redemption, and finally journeying on a
path to fulfillment.
