As a follow-up from yesterdaysPicture of the Day, the Sifter was compelled to do a full feature onTakanori Aibas incredible miniature sculptures. The level of detail and intricacy in his work is truly mind-blowing. Each sculpture is like a miniature world, bursting with life and stories. I would love to see some close-ups if anybody has seen these in-person. Below you will find a selection of Takanoris work along with information on the artist and his other creative pursuits like restaurant design and maze illustration. Enjoy!
