LEGO is something often associated with childhood, but Andy’s unique approach to LEGO inspired art has adults craving over his works. What is it about Andy’s artwork that sets him from the rest?<\/h2>\n

Imagine yourself entering a LEGO house where everything around you is LEGO. LEGO cameras, LEGO food, LEGO flowers, even LEGO paintings of Andy Warhol.
\nThat\u2019s the feel that you will get when you enter the Little Big Art exhibition, the first of it\u2019s kind in world. Instead of the usual LEGO exhibition where you see sculptures and installations made out of little LEGO pieces, here you will see LEGO pieces magnified 20 times it\u2019s regular size and merging together with the human world.
