Thomas Doyle makes perfect, tiny homes -- then wreaks untold havoc upon them. "I was looking at the iconic house," says the New York-based sculptor, "and thought it was an interesting juxtaposition to work with disastrous scenes."
Doyle, 35, spends months crafting each piece, starting with a foam and plaster core for the earth. He then builds houses at 1:43 scale, and causes calamity to strike. Figurines are left in the aftermath trudging along with suitcases or burying the dead. "There's no explanation for the disaster, it just is," he says. "Either something just happened or is about to."
