Calvin and Hobbes.
Small World by Manuel Archain.
“ The usual, everyday dream, our out of scale perception and how each one of us is so into our personal world that we cannot see what is happening around us. The size and weight of things is so distorted, we can even manage to move into a small world. Why the size of a truck could not be the same as my personal scale of a tea cup?”

The Thinker of Tender Thoughts
“Through simple phrases spelt out in neon, Etchells create miniature narratives, moments of confusion, awkwardness, reflection and intimacy in public and gallery settings. Invoking a story, or projecting an idea out-of-context into the situation of the work invites us in, but into what exactly we can’t be sure.”
“I never lose a sense of wonder. If one loses that one loses everything. So everything is a slight miracle.”
“If we can’t, as artists, improve on real life, we should put down our pencils and go bake bread.”
“What one may perceive as imaginary, I see as realities in all of us. Art often enables us to express ourselves in our truest form, and it is photography that allows me to do just that. Photography’s primary focus is capturing everyday reality. In a quick snap, something timeless that everyone can understand is created. However, photography can be much more than that. Why not use the true-to-life aspect of photography to display the inner workings of our souls? It is my goal to transcend the reality we all see, to the reality we all feel. ”
