Hand signed in pencil // Applause by Banksy is a provocative screen-print that combines black-and-white photographic realism with the artist’s signature stenciled elements and satirical commentary. In this piece, two military personnel on an aircraft carrier are preparing a jet for takeoff. One of the figures holds up a sign that reads Applause, adding a jarring element of absurdity to the otherwise serious scene of military operations. Banksy’s use of stark contrast between the somber grayscale imagery of war and the playful, ironic sign highlights the artist's critique of society's desensitization to violence and spectacle. This limited edition print is hand-signed by Banksy, reflecting his ongoing engagement with political and social issues through street art and satire.
