With over 110,000 followers on instagram and sold out shows across the world this is a great miniature investment.
Each piece is lazer cut out out 100s of pieces to exactly replicate a street location, building in Hong Kong. The graffiti ‘tags’ markings are made using stencils and painted by hand. Even the posters, photos on the buildings are exact replicas.
Joshua only came to Hong Kong for the first time when we brought him for these set of models. He normally makes all his works from photos from artists and google street maps
