Almadi Diorama, the person responsible for these beautiful miniature streets, grew up in the city of Karbala, located 100 km south of Baghdad.

Almadi's father was one of the unfortunate opponents of then-Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, and was imprisoned for his activities.

Elmadi the child grew up with his mother and aunt, and spent his many free hours making art and reading stories. "The stories I read brought to mind entire scenes and complex locations that I imagined while reading," he said.

At the age of 16, Diorama came to the United States, where he first encountered a computer. He uploaded his creations online, and in a short time acquired thousands of fans who follow him around the world.
