This video presents a method created by the artist Alexandre Orion to make what he calls "Pollugraphies". This apparently simple technique captures the soot directly from car exhaust pipes and produces images. Each piece is exposed to the pollution for a week. If the truck shakes hard, the piece gets damaged. If it rains, the piece is gone. Orion produces an average of 4 pieces to save only one.
