Amazing Microscopic Art - Willard Wigen


This is amazing...Willard is a resident of Birmingham, England. The show is in Manchester. He has a learning disability (Dyslexia), but has talented hands. He makes the sculptures out of dust particles, sugar crystals, etc. Works only around midnight, and can only do some of the work between heartbeats.
