Theses amazing sculptures are the work of sculptor Ben Long the project started in 2004 and was in development for 2 years.

This ambitious series of scaffolding sculptures were inspired by his experience of working on construction sites as a teenager and each one took up to 3 weeks to construct using tube and fitting. Throughout the project Ben worked with specialists including D+R Scaffolding Group and Amiri Construction Ltd.
