The Muncipality of Peter Root
UK based Peter Root’s says his work “involves highly labor-intensive, mantra-like procedures of construction and assemblage.”
In the basic building of a city Mayberry, we are given a Rootian example by means of
Ephemicropolis;
a 100,000 metal fastener utopia arduously arranged over a 40-hour period.

That is a beautiful creation. I am amazed at the time spent and the steady hand that is required.
