Open Gardens SA – Tickle Tank

Tickle Tank, the charming and unique home of talented sculptor and artist Irene Pearce has delighted and inspired thousands of visitors over the years. Once the storage tank for the water supply to the surrounding town, Irene bought the property in 1998, and with great vision added several smaller tanks transforming them into a quirky and comfortable home. Over time she has decorated both inside and outside with intricate mosaics and creative artwork made mostly from recycled objects. The bright colourful garden is wrapped closely around the tanks and although tiny, is crammed with clever ideas, surprises and whimsy.
