When photographer Manuel Archain’s agent, Franziska Holzer, sent these photographs through on a newsletter, I had to share. Reminiscent of the children’s novel The Borrowers, the photographs are beautifully executed and a wonderful example of Archain’s more ethereal work. Hailing from Argentina, Archain started drawing and sculpting as a child in his artist mother’s studio. Every idea he has is carefully sketched out before being realized photographically, so nothing is left to chance.
