Contrary to presenting gigantic structures on an intimate scale in the Zoom Out space, the Zoom In space scales up objects in the artist's studio, including a mug, a pair of glasses, keys, a pencil and a cellphone, into colossal ones that delude visitors into believing that they have been transformed into tiny beings.
