This impressive collection of miniature urban buildings is by Joshua Smith. He is a miniaturist artist based in Adelaide, Australia and has had his creations showcased in London, Paris, Berlin, New York, and Australia. Joshua is completely self-taught and uses MDF, Wood, cardboard, plastic card, chalk pastels, spray paint, wire, plastruct and paint markers to make his miniature buildings.
His miniature works primarily focus on the often overlooked aspects of the urban environment such as grime, rust, decay to discarded cigarettes and graffiti perfectly recreated in 1:20 scale miniatures.
