Description

This iconic sculpture by Diederick Van Apple is part of the Art Against War collection, a committed series that diverts the imagery of weapons to offer an artistic and pacifist interpretation. The weapon displays a striking contrast between a textured gold stock and a barrel covered in a delicate floral pattern, symbolizing the duality between violence and beauty. The whole rests on an elegant black base, accentuating its sculptural and conceptual character. With this work, the artist plays on the codes of luxury and pop culture to invite a reflection on war and peace.
