Artist Peter Root showcases his latest project, a city made purely of metal staples.

Root’s project, named Ephemicropolis, was constructed by using over 100,000 staples. It took him 40 hours to built this micro city marvel.

Some of the staple skyscrapers of Ephemicropolis are up to 12 cm tall, while some of the smaller ones are represented by a single staple. The whole installation covers a floor space of about 6m x 3m.
