Expert Answer
Ans:
One very interesting and innovative example of creativity is the rock garden at Chandigarh, India.It is located near a beautiful and serene lake Sukhna. It is the brainchild of Nek Chand, who created hundreds of beautiful sculptures by using a variety of discarded waste like porcelain, marbles, utensils, metal wires, forks, handlebars, broken bangles etc. The process took decades of painstaking effort and dedication to the cause by the founder. It is hard to believe how domestic and other type of waste materials can be used in such a beautiful and environment friendly manner to create pieces of art admired by the visitors who come from long distances to visit this place, which is a must see on anyone’s list who visits Chandigarh.
