Why have I always been so interested in artificial, miniature worlds?
Is it about control? Being able to overview every detail of the scene? Creating any perspective you like?
On the other hand, there are so many different types of models. The ones that try to imitate reality in an extremely authentic way, or the works that open another door into a strange, small world, beyond any known everyday reality.
It's the wide space between the familiar authenticity and pure, small sized spatial art, that inspires so many great designers, modelmakers and artists. Watching out for new worlds, by going deep inside.
I'd like to introduce one of them. Brooklyn, NY based Alan Wolfson, who created a range of amazing, precise, urban miniatures, that capture the unique "New York feeling", presenting different situations in subway stations, motel rooms, street corners, etc.
