[{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1507288835365","data":"Talent can come from anywhere, provided it has enough room to breath and grow and make no mistake, while art in itself takes a tremendous amount of effort, being a micro artist is a step beyond that. <\/p>As with any work of art, patience and time are paramount, especially when it comes to arranging micro art. If you've ever been fascinated by how micro artists manage to accurately arrange their work to reflect the subject of their art, it takes a lot of time, so much so that the young student in question today, Durgam Vinay Kumar, only undertakes such projects in his holidays. <\/p>Recently making the local news for writing the history of Telangana, Durgam Vinay Kumar piqued our interest instantly. We reached out to him for a feature interview, and he gladly agreed.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1507291967479","data":"59d779aa4f176"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1507291969949","data":"\"I've always been interested in art,\" says Vinay Kumar, speaking during his lunch break between classes at Osmania University, \"the opportunity to do so, however, was not easily presented. When I was about 12 years old, I began working on my art.\" <\/p>Vinay Kumar hails from Adilabad district to the North of Telangana. He informs us that this is the first time he's ever come to Hyderabad, \"I only arrived at the city for the first time for my Masters in Chemistry,\" he laughs. <\/p>Speaking about his interest in Micro art and how it began, \"I read about micro art a few years ago when I was in my intermediate,\" he explains, \"our Principal would organise weekly events where he would encourage us to be creative and pursue our passions, which helped me a lot.\"  <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1507293150348","data":"59d779abbb1ba"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1507293154200","data":"Vinay goes on to talk about his feat of writing the history of Telangana, specifically its struggles from the 60s to the formation of the state in 2014, \"I wrote the history on Tangedu leaves, from 1969 to 2014,\" he smiles, \"I've now taken on the project to put the development schemes of the government of Telangana on Rice Grains\"<\/p>Vinay's projects usually take a tremendous amount of time, \"I don't do it when I have classes going on, it takes a lot of concentration, but when I have some amount of free time, I get to work,\" he says, \"It usually takes hours, sometimes even days to finish a piece I'm working on.\" <\/p>Arranging art pieces as tiny as the ones Vinay Kumar designs is, in itself, a herculean task. His efforts have got him recognition from the Government of Telangana as well as the media. <\/p>In conclusion, we ask him what his advice to students would be, he laughs and says, \"It's pretty simple really. I'm a student too now, and I know the value of hard work. Staying true to what you do will work wonders, just be honest with yourself\" <\/p>"}]
