Screenprint on wove - Unsigned // This iconic screen-print by Banksy depicts a chimpanzee wearing a sign that reads, Laugh now, but one day we’ll be in charge. The image is stark and minimalist, rendered in black against a light brown background, with the monkey holding the placard as if warning the viewer. Created in 2003, this piece is part of a series commenting on power structures, often using animals to critique social hierarchies and human behavior. The simplicity of the design enhances the emotional and political depth, evoking themes of subversion, rebellion, and societal control. Banksy’s use of stencil and bold text make this work a powerful statement on the overlooked and marginalized voices rising to power.
