Little People

Here is a blog I found which has these cool installations that play with juxtaposition and scale. I like how they show both a close image of what's happening and then one which gives us an idea of the scale of the scene. It reminds me of what i'm doing as he is putting people in a space creating a scene that wouldn't normally happen.

"My 'Little People Project' started in 2006. It involves the remodelling and painting of miniature model train set characters, which I then place 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." - Slinkachu
