Actually a large vacuum cleaner within and behind the body of a goat, the
Garbage Eating Goat was conjured by
Sister Paula Turnbull, a Catholic nun, for Expo ‘74 as a recycling/environment statement.
Sister Turnbull is well known in the northwest and has been decorating it for over 50 years with her art. This and
Australian Sundial, another of her works, are two of the stops on the
Spokane Sculpture Walk.
