Raj More with his palette of knife strokes, pays tribute to Mumbai's public transport. Various vehicles form the core inspiration of his work, representing the essence of this city's "It's my life" attitude. Kitsch taxis and rickshaws interpret the glam quotient while the graffiti-laden buses and trains are assaulted with the cynical but humorous side of Mumbai.
