Grandma Prisby

Grandma Prisby is a hero of mine. Her Bottle Village was close to where I lived. I never visited. I regret that.

I met Grandma Prisby at the Woman's Building in Los Angeles. She built semicircular walls, composed of concrete, toothbrushes, doll parts, bottles and other junk on the 3rd floor gallery. They were fascinating.
