A series of 10 paintings, car varnish on metal plate, each painted by a professional car workshop, each with a scratch made with a nail, keys, or other sharp objects. Each plate is in a colour of a particular luxury car.

The work has a political hint: Polish citizens are deprived of any actual influence on politics between the elections. The politicians once elected are beyond the social control. The only thing a citizen may do is to scratch their car.
