This mural is inspired by the story of an American Express pilot from the 1920s who made an emergency landing in a pasture full of cows. While trying to protect the animals, he damaged the fence, inadvertently causing the frightened herd to escape. A large-scale artist working in public space finds himself in a similar position to the unfortunate pilot - good intentions alone do not guarantee a positive reception of their work. When Shai chose to paint the pilot, he had no idea the mural would be created on Pilotów Street, located on the grounds of the former airport where the Zaspa district now stands.
