Mumbai is all about the hustle. Hundreds of thousands of commuters crowd the Mumbai local trains to get to work every day. In the race to make a living, the workforce of Mumbai has become robotic, going for the same workday grind day in and day out. As they blend into the crowd to be reduced to just a cog in the machine running the city, they lose their individual identities. Titled after one of Mumbai's most crowded train routes, this piece, set in a train compartment, depicts this. Each person is represented with the same monotonous mannequin. The burdens of their occupation, made with wire, are the only thing differentiating one from another.
