Small is good

Little People, is a tiny street art project where artist Slinkachu leaves little handpainted people all over London to fend for themselves, and photographs them as he last sees them. This pint sized project made me gasp in delight. Why is anything miniature always so much better than anything lifesized? Slinkachu creates installations of his little people doing wonderful things, ordinary, illegal, even violent things. The project has been going on since August 2006, has received much press, there’s even a book now and you should go through the archives. Enjoy.

Slinkachu also has a project called Inner city snail and the last image is a beauty from there.

Cc

I’m no stranger to complimenting unique, stylish strangers on their outfits but I’ve generally only photographed people I’ve built a rapport with. Yesterday I had my first true street fashion blog photographer moment when Cc walked past us on Swanston St. We literally dropped our jaws and ran after her so I could take her picture.

Cc’s mum made this jacket and the finish was immaculate. The arm and leg accessories were handcrafted by Cc herself and she owned that look.

Look at the little details. I have to admit I was a little awestruck.
