Imagine if someone made a life-sized set for a post-apocalyptic film. Now imagine that same someone shrunk the set down small enough to fit into a planter pot. eThat is a loose description of the sculptures of Simon Laveuve. Here’s more from COLOSSAL:
Paris-based artist Simon Laveuve imagines a world filled with anarchic architecture in his ongoing series of detailed, miniature shelters…. At 1/35 scale, his recent works continue to explore the possibilities of dwelling in remote or inhospitable places, incorporating tiny tire swings, rope ladders, furniture, and art. The ramshackle, towering structures contain wooden doors, scrawled messages, and a variety of utilitarian objects, suggesting the industrious work of unseen hands. While devoid of figures, an abandoned coffee cup or a door left ajar suggests the inhabitants are not too far away.
