Alexander Legkobit I live and work in Kiev. Born in 1961 I have been doing microminiatures for over 15 years. Microminiature is a rare and amazing view. an art in which the impossible becomes reality. The works that I present to you are images of flowers on human hair (human hair is natural size). The works were created using a microscope using micro-tools made using our own technology, which are many times thinner than human hair. The work is so small, explore without a microscope impossible. Microparticles that flew in the air and fell on the protective glass next to the work (in the photo), it can easily hide the microimage under it. For example, 8,000 such microimages will correspond to one grain of rice and approximately 200,000 microns of one cent. When creating works of this microsize, a complete concentration of the whole organism is necessary. Combating the natural vibration of one’s own body and work between beats of the heart. To create one work requires months and hundreds of distorted samples. Currently, several people in the world can create micro-art of such a small size. These microimages do not need a certificate of authenticity, because no one in the world can copy them in their original size. Even I can not make an exact copy. Each work is unique. I am sure that even viewing these works will please you. And buying is a great investment in the future.
