Mr Kuu

Mr Kuu prints by using macro photography (in extreme close-up) coupled with modified miniature figures to present his vision. Along with fiercely avoiding image manipulation, as he aspires to present life, as we rarely see it; as a microcosm. The location can be pain stakingly scouted or he can stumble upon accidently.

However, to enter Mr Kuu’s studio, is to enter the mind of a man who can seek out the extraordinary in the ordinary. It is a real-life ‘imaginarium’, in which he can recreate hundreds of miniature scenes to test his ideas. Especially relevant, place rich in inspiration, creativity and humour. When he presents his latest creation he does so with a caveat; that you too must join him in appreciating the everyday, in noticing the unnoticed and revelling in the detail.
