Through the eye of a needle

Part artist part scientist, Willard Wigan creates art so minute they can only be seen through a microscope. Almost invisible to the naked eye, each piece is typically placed in the eye of a needle or on the head of a pin.

To be able to create these unique micro sculptures Willard needs to enter a meditative state, allowing him to reduce hand tremors and sculpt between pulse beats.

Willard, a completely self taught artist, has been the subject of many discussions among micro-surgeons, nano-technologists and universities worldwide. His work is considered both inspirational and ground breaking in artistic and scientific spheres.

Whether you are an art lover or a scientist at heart this is a rare chance to meet the artist and see Willard's work for the first time in London. Described by many as "the eighth wonder of the world", his exhibitions sell out across the world, so book your ticket now.
