In the pictures of the gallery, the [Little People street art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fisherprice-little-people-x-andre-saraiva) project by Slinkachu looks larger-than-life. The quirky use of real life settings and objects makes for beautiful storytelling, and in some cases, some terrible tragedies.

Slinkachu offered a very close look at abstract scenarios that affect the lives of the [microscopic beings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-media) we tend to forget about. The mini characters in the collection (aside from the poor ones that perished) seem to have no fear as they tackle human-sized tobogganing hills, or skate parks in wheelchairs.

The concept is fantastic and the pictures are even better. Take a look and enjoy!
