Image caption, Lela Rowe: "When I found out my friend had once given my partner this beautiful piece of silicon carbide, I asked said friend about it. He said he had a big chunk and would break me some off (forgetting it's an incredible hard and brittle material), so instead he ended up shattering it into a million pieces, which he then sent to me to create a miniature figures world. It sat on a shelf for a week waiting for the right lighting to bring out the colours in the carborundum. Finally... The Carborundum Discovery was born!"

Image caption, Caren McCaleb: "I make faces out of the stuff I see while walking my dogs. I spotted this shy little lump of dirt on a hike in Runyon Canyon in Los Angeles, California. He just needed eyes and a mouth to come to life."
