‘… reflect the loneliness and melancholy of living in a big city’

‘My work involves remodeling and painting of miniature model train set characters, which I then place and leave on the street. It is both sculpture, street art installation and photography… The scenes I set up, more evident through the photography and the titles I give these scenes, aim to reflect the loneliness and melancholy of living in a big city; the universal sense of being overlooked, lost and overwhelmed. But along side this there is always some humour’
