The Australian artist has a flair for the microscopic, and his latest project captures the familiar grit of urban life in a fascinatingly small-scale model. The centerpiece of his recent work, Temple Street, is modeled after a real apartment block in Kowloon City, Hong Kong. Using finely carved cardboard, medium-density fibreboard and paint, he manages to emulate every minute aspect of a rough, big city landscape. Rust, graffiti, tiny advertisements, and other touches are perfectly placed and look realistic. “I want viewers to be fooled, if I take a photo of the completed work in sunlight, to think it is the real thing,” Joshua Smith told ArchDaily. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
