Since the beginning of his career, the artist has been fascinated by public transport. According to statistics, 14 million Poles have to travel miles everywhere, and the reduction in public transport during the political transformation resulted in some places being impossible to get out of without a car. Residents of Warsaw are better off because the public transport network is continuously being developed. The artist explores the aesthetics of bus fleets from different time periods. He creates a photographic atlas of electric buses and a painting in which he portrays the doors of an old vehicle. The video is an interview with a transport enthusiast who, thanks to her fascination with a driving simulator, ended up behind the wheel of a Warsaw bus and runs the profile @dziewczynazakolkiemautobusu (girlbehindabuswheel).
