John Piccoli

John Piccoli Artist

The late John Piccoli’s unique creations earned him the name “the Spanner Man” - and his extraordinary collection, displayed at his farm property in Boort, became a huge tourist attraction for the tiny town. He contracted polio in 1949, eventually having to stop farming and use a wheelchair for mobility. But his talent, imagination and creativity didn’t stop, right up until his death in 2021. Now, his family continue his legacy, keeping the unique spanner sculpture garden open for visitors.
