The Residents of Carmel

Carmel, Indiana

You’ll find a few friendly faces along the streets of the Carmel Arts and Design District. Many of those friendly faces are statues sculpted by J Seward Johnson Jr. Almost every street you pass you’ll discover a new one. We found 16 out of the 17 sculptures. The coolest thing about these sculptures is how real they are. At first it was almost as if they had come to life, because we discovered a new statue each day.

“Confirming Predictions”

“Unconditional Surrender”

Recreation of the famous photograph by Alfred Eisenstaedt.

“Eternal Spring”

This sculpture was done by Jerry Joslin.
