PICOWORM<br />
Just in her twenties, Lim Pui Wan artfully evokes<br />
nostalgia and memories with PicoWorm. It is a dream<br />
come true for her to become a miniature artist. From<br />
saving money through part-time jobs to buy her first<br />
supplies and tools, Pui Wan has accomplished more<br />
than what she humbly aspires today–tugging the<br />
hearts of many with PicoWorm’s miniatures.<br />
‘PicoWorm’ exhibits someone who loves and<br />
devotes her time in making miniatures. To break it<br />
down for you, ‘Pico’ is a small unit in metric system<br />
and ‘Worm’ is derived from the word, bookworm as<br />
someone who loves to read. Besides, P.W. can also<br />
stand as her initials!<br />
As an artist, Pui Wan turns anything she saw or<br />
experienced into her artwork in detail. Inspired by<br />
her grandmother, her famous Nanyang Kitchen set<br />
took her 5 months to complete. Another personal<br />
collection is the Ban Fong Provision Shop that<br />
serves as a remembrance of her childhood. “Realistic<br />
miniatures can reminisce their past memories, and<br />
the feeling of missing the old days.” Pui Wan shares.<br />
PicoWorm miniatures are normally made to order<br />
and if you’re lucky, she also sells limited pieces of her<br />
miniatures online.<br />
