In the Uber app, a new button has made an appearance : UberToys. By clicking on it you could summon one of the Six life-sized Toy Cars offering rides in three big cities : Paris, Zurich and Vienna, over one month for free.

Cultural / Context information for the jury

In France, where the country is living one of its biggest social upheavals with the yellow vests movement, the positive intercations with Uber has dropped to 23%.

Explain how the work innovatively used the outdoor medium.

Those six life-sized toys labeled with a Uber logo on it where highly visible and stands out in the middle of all those black sedans during traffic jam. Millions of Parisians, Zurich and Viennese people saw those six cars on the streets. The cars were litteraly moving billboards.
