Imagine if we suddenly shrank and the world around us became huge for us. How would we live? We would have to rebuild our homes from different things, bugs would be a much scarier threat, and traveling would take much longer.

A new book looks at artists working at the smallest scale—whether painting on almonds, sculpting dime-sized pots, or carving masterpieces from pencil lead.
I was born in Athens, Greece in 1974. I have a degree in graphic design and I love art. I started as a scale modeler 20 years ago and for the last 8 years, I have been working as a diorama and miniature artist. My dream is one day to see this artwork in museums introducing the art of miniatures all over the world. Maybe in this way, the world will seem more beautiful…
A mixed batch of funny, interesting, odd, and random photos to enjoy.

Since April 2011, art director and photographer Tatsuya Tanaka’s imagination has built a magnificent number of miniature worlds (previously here and here). Through the artist’s clever lens, everyday activities like construction work, walking the dog, getting a parking ticket, and plowing through a blizzard become delight-inducing scenarios. Tanaka also plays with pop culture references, building staple skyscrapers for Godzilla to prowl.

Designer Rosa de Jong produces micro homes that are built into the side of tiny cliffs constructed out of cork. Her miniature environments are covered in fake moss and dotted with modeling trees, which add an enchanting element to the small homes. Previously she has suspended her creations in glass tubes, which created the illusion that the works were floating in mid-air. Her most recent pieces hang between two panes of glass and are secured with thin wires. More

Suspended within Rosa de Jong’s simple wooden frames are miniature dwellings that climb the steep, rocky terrain. Stilt houses, tents, and exceptionally tall ladders form the idyllic environments that are surrounded by faux moss, minuscule trees, and generally rugged topography. Once assembled, the enchanting scenes appear to float in the open air or within the vertical enclosures of test tubes. Based in Amsterdam, de Jong (previously) shares with Colossal that she hopes to incorporate water-rooted plants and crystals into future projects. More

As long as humans have made art, they've experimented on a tiny scale. Ancient, minimal depictions of animals have been discovered on the walls of Indonesian caves. Today, artists continue to explore the possibilities of the miniature. Many are attracted to a process's challenges and limitations that require extreme concentration, creativity, and patience. Others are drawn to the intimacy of the tiny sculptures that result or the conceptual weight of depicting sprawling landscapes or heady subjects on diminutive surfaces. Below, you will know about Incredible Micro sculptures with Unusual ideas from different sculptors.

Since 2011, Tatsuya Tanaka has been creating miniature dioramas from ordinary household items (and often from food, which seems like a growing genre within the art). His work has gained great popularity recently with an annual calendar, and now a photo book. Check out these outstanding pieces.
