In class we looked into a UK artist who’s work features miniature figures fending for themselves in the bustling city, where they are then photographed and left to the abandon of their urban environment.<\/p>\n

“These figures embody the estrangement spurred by the over-whelming nature of the modern metropolis, and incite a renewed perspective of the everyday urban experience to those who find them. This sense of isolation and melancholy, however, is accompanied by sense of irony and humour that makes Slinkachu’s commentary all the more poignant.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
