Ben Long: Drawings in Dirt

Using his finger to scribe into the layer of dirt built-up from exhaust emissions, Ben Long creates elaborate drawings on the rear shutters of white haulage trucks. Here are a few pics from his ongoing series, The Great Travelling Art Exhibition.

“Lasting a finite period, though sometimes as long as six months, it is precisely this impermanence and vulnerability that give the drawings their point of interest and contemporary relevance.”
