Tiny Tiny Worlds in Tatsuya Tanaka’s Miniature Calendar Photo Project II

Potato chips become desert sand dunes, spiral-bound notebooks delineate swimmers poised to compete, and books filled with sticky notes create an urban skyscraper scene.

Another year, another 365 days of tiny tiny worlds from Tatsuya Tanaka’s Miniature Calendar Photo Project.  On a daily basis for the past seven years, the prolific Japanese miniature artist has shared unique images of imagined scenes created using the simple combination of everyday objects, tiny model humans, and his boundless imagination.
