BANKSY (1974) - "Flower Thrower" / "Love is in the Air". Silkscreen on paper, numbered 39/150. Signed. Dimensions: 38 x 28 cm.
Image : The central figure is a protester, represented in stencil style (typical of Banksy), captured at the moment he prepares to throw something. Instead of an aggressive object, he holds a bouquet of colorful flowers, creating a very strong visual and symbolic contrast. The protester wears dark clothing: a hooded jacket, light-colored pants, and a scarf covering part of his face, evoking images of protest. The background is entirely white and minimalist, highlighting the gesture and symbolism.
Meaning and Interpretation: The work mixes violence and peace, transforming a gesture of confrontation into an act of hope. The bouquet represents love, empathy, and peaceful resistance, replacing the destructive act with a message of positive change. It is a typical social critique of\. Banksy, who uses humor and irony to address themes such as protest, conflict, politics, and humanity. This piece has an attribution mark,
