Slinkachu is an artist from the UK who works with miniature train set figurines and sets them up in normal street settings. The tiny works are set up partially as a street art project and partially as a photography project. Slinkachu's goal is to experiment with the element of surprise and make normal passers by more aware of their surroundings. The works are representative of the loneliness of the big city.
This work is throrougly inspiring because it brings art into the everyday life of the average person and I believe that anyone who sees it can relate to it and enjoy it on some level. This aspect of miniatures really appeals to me and I think that I will use it in some way to improve my windmill structure.
