Catalogue Note
"I interpret it as loneliness in a crowd. People in public transport are interesting because they are many and they think that no one is watching them. Something captivating happens in them at this precise moment. Perhaps they are inwardly awaiting something..." From artist's interview with Ekaterina Degot, quoted in: Faibisovich: Comeback, Moscow, 2008
