Standing in one of the moss and dirt covered tunnels in Leeds, England, Paul Curtis, "Moose" as he calls himself, saw marks on the wall where the shoulders of unsteady drunks and the fingertips of curious children had exposed the shiny white tile. And with only a pair of socks as his tool, reverse graffiti was born.
No paint. No defacing. Moose makes his art by cleaning; removing the ills of dirt and pollution by de-defacing- wiping away dirt into large type and shapes, leaving nothing behind but a beautiful work of "green art."
For the past ten years, Moose has been working to perfect his craft. More
recently, his skill and notoriety have led to the creation of commissioned
pieces as well.
Moose enjoys creating 'legal graffiti' although at times has been in the
press for being a vandal. But no one has ever been able to make a case
against him because as he says, "No one owns the dirt."
