Péter Csákvári

I am one of those people often complaining that growing up sucks. Maybe this is why I’m so enchanted by toy photography, and Péter Csákvári is one of the photographers whose work I really love. He combines the adult world and topics with tiny figurines and toys. We featured his ongoing project Tiny Wasteland a few months back, and now he brings a new series of his quirky miniature worlds.

Péter uses mini figurines to create dioramas and combines them with everyday objects to create weird imaginary situations. Although he’s playing with toys, his ideas aren’t something an average kid would think about. Some of his photos are hilarious, but the others explore dark and disturbing topics such as death or murder.
