Already on the grounds of miniatures, James Casebere makes extremely realistic architectural miniatures. Whats more amazing is that these pieces are interiors, which would generally make miniatures become visible as such. However with his interiors, its easy to just assume they are photos of actual locations. The walls look like actual stucco walls, aged and dry, with sunlight pouring in from the small windows. In one image, a pile of rubble sits in the middle and just enforces the realism of the image.
In addition to these miniature interiors, he also floods some, making them reminiscent of an old venetian building that has become flooded. The rooms become even smaller and a sense of urgency is felt, as if you are trapped in this flooding room.
The lighting is used to make these spaces feel realistic, and create a sense of depth and atmosphere inside, which really does seem real.
