Since 2004, street artist Ben Wilson has been turning thousands of blobs of discarded gum into miniature artworks that celebrate community and the lives of local people

He seems to be still going, as this item for sale is titled "xxx.2021" https://www.artsy.net/artwork/ben-wilson-self-portrait
Personally, I find myself short of the readies to buy this, so leave it for one of you lot to acquire for your collection (or post at cost of £60!)
