About the Artist/Site
Various sized figures of people and animals made up of fabric and broken pieces of pottery. Some of the sculpture sit in a covered environment, while others go around the outside of the museum. 29 of the works from the miniature garden Nek Chand built for the National Children’s Museum were acquired by the American Folk Art Museum. Children’s Museum reopens in 2012.
