You’re doing a grate job little men\u00a0<\/strong>(Image \u00a9 David Gilliver)<\/p>\n A fascination and a deep sense of\u00a0curiosity\u00a0towards tiny people inspired\u00a0Guernsey-based photographer and artist\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>David Gilliver <\/strong>to create an unique series of work\u00a0that\u00a0highlights\u00a0an interesting contrast of proportion.<\/p>\n With his immense expertise in macro photography and by intelligently\u00a0arranging miniature human figures with everyday\u00a0objects like coke\u00a0cans, toothpicks, fruits and eggs,\u00a0Gilliver creates intriguing surreal scenarios which are not only convincing, but also have a humoristic touch to them. Gilliver sources\u00a0the figurines through the internet, most of them which were\u00a0originally created to be used for train model sets.<\/p>\n “I enjoy finding new figures frozen in a particular pose – it almost feels like I have to then find a task for them to complete or be involved in, helping them fulfill their purpose.” explains David Gilliver. He adds, “<\/span>More often than not, I place the figures inside scenarios where they have a gargantuan task to complete which sometimes invokes a sense of sympathy inside me for them”.<\/p>\n Once conceptualized, it takes approximately 30 minutes to create a pose\u00a0and shoot.
