Peace Gun (Silver)
Work Summary & Collector Notes
"Peace Gun (Silver)" (2015) is a hand-pulled seven-colour screen print from Stolen Space, sized 42.5 x 100cm in a tight edition of 35, signed and stamped. Its tall, banner-like format and layered colour build reflect D*Face's ongoing engagement with weaponry recast as a symbol of contradiction rather than aggression.

Why It Matters
An edition of just 35 places this among D*Face's scarcer print releases. The seven-colour process and the elongated vertical composition make it a technically demanding print, and the "Peace Gun" motif distills the artist's habit of turning loaded American iconography into ironic commentary.
Collector Perspective
With only 35 impressions, availability is limited and condition sensitivity is high given the panoramic proportions, which demand careful flat storage and custom framing. The signed-and-stamped format aids authentication. The Silver colourway is one variant within the Peace Gun family, so collectors tracking completeness should note its relationship to other releases.
Historical Context
Released in 2015 through Stolen Space, the print belongs to a period when D*Face was consolidating his visual language of subverted Americana. The gun-as-peace-symbol conceit echoes pop-protest traditions, reworking the imagery of consumer and gun culture into something deliberately unsettling.
