“The ‘Little People Project’ started in 2006. It involves the remodelling and painting of miniature model train set characters, which I then place, photograph and leave on the street. It is both a street art installation project and a photography project. The street-based side of my work plays with the notion of surprise and I aim to encourage city-dwellers to be more aware of their surroundings. The scenes I set up, more evident through the photography and the titles I give these scenes aim to reflect the loneliness and melancholy of living in a big city, almost being lost and overwhelmed. But underneath this, there is always some humour. I want people to be able to empathise with the tiny people in my works.” by slinkanchu

When I saw this, I was thinking of Woody Allen´s film “everything that you need to know about sex”
Awwww… I love this…. pictures are just like our second self – it shows us what we should see or want to see…. love this post.
Nice! I like the little story you have suggested with your pictures.
Awesome, these are spectacular pictures and they speak volume of your project. 2006 till now is quite a long time, and I am glad you are making a success of everything.
