About the artist

Gatz

Gatz is an internationally renowned miniature artist

Inspired by 1/87 scale model figurines, Gatz created his first Box Story in 2010 as a gift for his girlfriend. Self-taught, carried by the enthusiastic reactions around his stories in boxes, he has since had fun staging characters of 2 centimeters in situations that exceed them.

Gatz turns masterpieces into humorous 3D contemporary works

Jewelery objects, such as music boxes, cuckoo clocks and works by artist Joseph Cornell, have always appealed to him. Admiring Japanese aesthetics, he builds his scenes in sober, refined universes, working with a selection of materials: wood, polystyrene, foam sheets and paper.

Gatz sees his creations only through the prism of humor, all forms of humor.

Gatz likes to divert figurines from their primary function, inventing a destiny for them. The humor and poetry of the moments he freezes in his boxes are reinforced by the titles that accompany them.
