About this experience
Have you ever seen golden camels in the eye of a needle? Or a book bound with spiderweb? Or art pieces placed on a human hair?
For that, the artist had to slow down the pace of his heartbeat as he worked on his art pieces between to heartbeats.
I could go on describing what you can see in the Micro Art Museum, but it is best to come and check it out for yourself. The smallest and most elaborate art pieces in the world can be seen under microscopes. You can also see something without a microscope, but you wouldn't always be able to tell us what there is on the other side of the lens.
Mykola Syadristy's art shows us that nothing is impossible, we just have to improve our skills and be persistent and patient.

"Been there, seen it, still cannot believe it" - a frequent reaction of our visitors.
You would probably never think of putting a golden chessboard with a famous chess position on a pinhead, or cutting a poppy seed into two halves and placing a bird nest with tiny golden swallows in one half of a poppy seed.
The smallest Coke bottle in the world and the smallest book in the world (consisting of 12 pages) can also be seen here, in details under a microscope.
No matter how much I try to describe this, you won't believe me until you come and see the tiniest and most elaborate art pieces in the world. Mykola Syadristy has 3 museums in the world: one in Kyiv, one in Andorra and one in Szentendre, the town of artists where he had an artist friend.
