The main question of the film is: What creates emotional bond between human being and environment. Why do we return?

Presenting the perspective and state of mind of the homeless living in the downtown area.

Bolek Ryziński, born in Poland, architect, sculptor, photographer, builder, spent most of his life in NYC. As of 2021, he lives in San Juan, Puerto Rico. This is where his public Caoba Project was born. Bolek inspired by a mahogany trunk left on an island, between highway ramps, decided to give it a shape. The movie introduces the process of sculpting, along with the birth of an idea. Narrated by the artist, the movie is made as a moving collage. Mostly from footage given to me by Bolek, and pictures of objects characteristic of San Juan’s nature. The Caoba Project is continuing. San Juan allocated a “new” mahogany trunk, on a public square, to be sculpted by Bolek. Bolek Ryziński’s Caoba Project is street art, it belongs to everyone.
