"To not realise you have power is the first step to losing it"
- Banksy
This artwork encapsulates Banksy’s ability to juxtapose the mundane with the ominous. The saw, an object associated with industry and destruction, intrudes upon the peaceful scene, suggesting themes of industrialisation, environmental damage, or societal disregard for the vulnerable. By placing the saw in an otherwise serene setting, Banksy highlights the fragility of safety and normalcy, forcing viewers to confront the uncomfortable realities often lurking beneath the surface of everyday life.
