Watch: Artist's tiny take on Irish society's big problems

An artist has found a unique way of highlighting some of the biggest problems facing Irish society - he creates hyper-realistic miniature models of them.

Nathan Wheeler builds tiny models focused on the themes of dereliction and decay.

His detailed models of run-down properties around Ireland can each take up to a month to make.

Mr Wheeler posts his work on Instagram and TikTok.

"I think it stirs up conversations which are really, really poignant in Irish society," he said.
