Artwork description

Driver is a pencil drawing that captures a moment inside a vehicle with bold, stylized forms. At the center sits the driver, wearing a cap and smoking a cigarette, his exaggerated facial features giving him a mix of determination and weariness. His large, strong hands grip the steering wheel firmly, emphasizing his role and responsibility behind it.

To the side, a passenger is sketched in profile, her posture and expression suggesting a quiet, detached presence. The faint background details—numbers, patterns, and inscriptions—add a sense of movement and context, situating the figures within the busy yet intimate world of public transport.

The artwork balances realism with abstraction, using distortion and sharp lines to heighten expression. The smoke curling from the cigarette adds rhythm to the composition, contrasting with the rigid structure of the driver’s stance. This drawing transforms an everyday scene into a symbolic portrayal of routine, endurance, and the quiet poetry found in ordinary moments.
