decorated with local artists' works.
By the end of the tour, I was even
more convinced of the need for
suburbanites to come and see it."
The project consists of sev-
eral wild, colorful structures with
names like "The Dotty Wotty
House" and "The Number House."
There are also free-standing sculp-
tures, including one called "The
Oven" which is made of an old stove
stuffed with shoes. Guyton says he
was inspired to create the piece in
memory of those who suffered in
the Holocaust. He also uses shoes in
his artwork to depict the homeless,
and the lynchings in the South.
Twice, the City of Detroit has
bulldozed portions of the project,
claiming it was an eyesore, but
Guyton has never given up. His goal
is to inspire people to use art to
enrich and improve their lives.
"His message really is that people
can make a difference and that's
why he's in people's faces a lot with
his artwork," said Raines.
"It's good to see people, black
and white, working together to try
and bring back this part of the city,"
she added. "Hopefully, it will have a
ripple effect." 71
