55-year old British sculptorWillard Wiganis dyslexic and did poorly in school.
Even today, he can barely read or write.
His Statue of Liberty is made from a speck of gold.
And he can fit no less than nine camels inside the eye of a needle.
Wigan has since aimed to make even smaller artworks, visible only with a microscope.
His mother challenged him, he says.
“Go smaller,” she told him.
So Mr. Wigan did.
The subjects of Wigan’s works range from popular culture to architecture.
Mr. Wigan has made about 160 of these sculptures.
On average it takes Wigan about eight weeks to complete one sculpture in a process that is physically challenging.
