The minuscule worlds designed by Sam Copeland and () are just like ours—only a little bit slimier. Creating for the past few years, the pair has a robust collection of sets fit for their tiny snail pals. The mollusks are caught slithering up to a video rental spot to browse horror films like The Snexorcist and Shellraiser, taking a snooze at their office job, and giving themselves a pep talk in the pink-tiled bathroom of a dive bar. Puns and adorable miniature renditions of common objects like a bulky desktop computer and bottles of nail polish fill the scenes, which feel like they’re plucked straight from the 90s.
Copeland and Murawski will have work in a group exhibition opening September 30 at in Walnut Creek, California, and have a follow-up to their book, , slated for publishing in 2024 by Broccoli. They’re currently in progress on a few video projects, which you can find on .
