This piece belongs to street artist Shepard Fairey. The name of the piece is Guns and Roses and was used to protest gun violence. The artwork was created in 2006-2007 and shows two types of guns with flowers in their barrels to show that we should be choosing peace over violence.
I feel that this piece is still relevant today because of the problem of gun violence and the need for gun control. There have been lots of mass shootings that have happened, and this poster can be used to show that we should choose peace over violence and turn instruments of harm into symbols of life and beauty.
