I have seen a television programme where he showed how he made his sculptures. In one case he used microscopic dust that flies in the air (the little particles of dust that create tiny specs of light) to create a part of one of his little creatures.
He sits behind his computer to work on a project for hours on end, from start to finish, hardly moving at all. That must be the man with the steadiest nerveous on the planet.
All the work he created was shown in an exhibition last year, and it got bought by a rich guy, one little elephant may be worth 300.000 dollars, the entire collection was bought for 24 million dollars - at least that is what the BBC television told.
Or maybe you already know that, if it was in the news broadcast ReyRey showed.
What I find fascinating about this artist is not that he creates these small objects, but the fact that he has been doing it for so very long already. And that he started it when he was still a child.
