“Sometimes things are not what they seem to be at first sight. When I first noticed Ben Wilson, I thought he was homeless. But sometimes you just have to take a closer look at things.”
Sometimes things are not what they seem to be at first sight. When I first noticed Ben Wilson in London's suburb Muswell Hill, I thought he was homeless. But sometimes you just have to take a closer look at things. That is how my documentary "the chewing gum man" was born.
For a couple of months I followed Ben Wilson all over London, keeping records of his daily working routine. I got to know a very special man, an artist, a libertine.
