Little People Project

Since 2006, UK artist "Slinkachu" has been running on a plan involving small, painted miniature model train set people being set on the street and photographed as function of an on-going installation piece/photography project that`s supposed to serve people remember more about their environment as they walk.

Below are simply some of the photos he`s taken, but I highly recommend checking out his website (http://www.

linkachu.com) for more from this and other projects that he`s working on, "Inner City Snail" that features snails found on the street, painted, and so returned to their habitat.

Adult Entertainment

Even with that tiny face, I remember I see shame.

Bee Hunting

I hunted a bee with a rifle once, but the results weren`t nearly as good.

Broccoli Trees

Broccoli farming is severe and serious work.

Camping

Broken Glass

Broken glass is a perpetual care for Little People.

Car Accident

Even Little People have car accidents.

Coast Guard

Little People Coast Guard has found a floater.

Disaster Area

Some kind of disaster, though I`m not certain I wish to acknowledge what caused it to feel like that.

Driving

Drunk Superhero

If you`re going to be a drunk superhero, you should at least be getting drunk off of good spirits and not cheap beer.

In the Big World

We`ve all felt like at one sentence or another.

Mailing Letters

Manhole Swimming

Swimming in a pond in a manhole must bear some deeper meaning.

Monster

Mothership

I actually need to think that when the aliens come, their spaceships will make the McDonald`s logo on it.

Mushroom Painting

Painting

I think if you were that small you`d paint ants too.

Picnic

Railroad Tunnel

All roads and rails lead to Starbucks.

Sea Monster

20 inches below the sea.

Skateboarding

Skate or Die has never looked this good.

Snail Riding

This photo actually plays into Slinkachu`s other project, "Inner City Snail".

Spilt Milk

I don`t cry over spilt milk, I row in it.

Tourists

Waterpark

That can`t end well.
