Caroline Dewison is a UK artist who creates captivating miniature dioramas. Her works are inspired by fantasy, magic, and the unknown, consisting of otherworldly scenes and sights.
For her latest series of dioramas, Dewison used unidentified flying objects and her fascination with the possibility of extraterrestrial life as a source of inspiration. Tiny 3D spacecrafts are shown paying a visit to Earth’s beautiful landscapes, which Dewison hand paints on the diorama backgrounds. This combination of 3D and two-dimensional elements contributes a great amount of depth to the pieces.
“In my lifetime, it’s gone from there being just us to scientists finding hundreds and thousands of exoplanets, many with the possibility of life. I would like to think that we’re not alone,” Dewison shares about the project.
Dewison also created various automata pieces on the same subject. In these pieces, UFOs are circling above a pond or performing choreographies in the sky with just a simple pull of a lever.
The majority of Dewison’s creations are handmade. She uses various materials, including plywood, Jesmonite composite material, acrylic paints, and clay, to bring her vision to life. However, she also turns to 3D-printing pen for more demanding elements.
