With a mission of being an observer, the artist examines the rules of behaviour and communication in the specific environment of a lively street in Vienna. She shows the contrast between the need for empathy and the desensitisation and from the position of a voluntary observer she undermines traditional perception of the strange and the typical. Through the overlap of different coexisting models of social relations the artist points out the problem of alienation of a contemporary man in the society.
