Sometimes it takes a fresh perspective to appreciate the everyday world around us. Japanese artist Tatsuya Tanaka has mastered this art. Using creativity and humor, he transforms ordinary objects into miniature scenes that reflect daily life in the most imaginative ways.
Tanaka sees the world differently. He can envision a tiny world within a head of broccoli or a civilization atop a stack of books. His dioramas make us rethink our surroundings, finding whimsy where we least expect it. Here are some of his best miniature creations that will inspire you to find art in the ordinary.
