Alan Wolfson creates handmade miniature sculptures of urban environments.
Complete with complex interior views and lighting effects, a major work can take several months to complete.

The pieces are usually not exact representations of existing locations, but rather a combination of details
from many different locations along with much of the detail from the artist's imagination.

There is a narrative element to the work. Scenarios are played out through the use of inanimate objects in the scene.
There are never people present, only things they have left behind; garbage, graffiti, or a tip on a diner table,
all give the work a sense of motion and a storyline.

Alan's miniature environments are included in art collections throughout the US and Europe.
