<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The dozens of artists and craftspeople featured in this volume create miniature representations of real-world scenes--everything from housewares, such as a thumb-sized rice cooker, to storefronts and cliffside dwellings suspended in test tubes, all the way up to entire multi-story buildings, with every detail preserved inside and out. Each of these exquisite works tells an intriguing story, encapsulating history, culture and memory, and elevating everyday items--the signage on the side of a garbage can, a rusted downspout--to objects worthy of artistic representation, prompting us through this striking shift of scale to perceive the world in whole new ways. <p/>Among the featured artists, Tatsuya Tanaka brings Japanese iconography into his master work "Miniature Calendar," while Joshua Smith, from Australia, keeps streets and addresses and memory alive by re-creating them in miniature, freezing them in time, complete with weeds and water stains. This book not only digs into the stories behind the works, but provides guidance for those who are ready to try their own hand at mini crafts. Three masters share their inspirations and techniques by revealing a detailed process of a single masterpiece.
