Axe is a collaboration between Banksy and Escif a Spanish artist known for their clean style of graffiti. The two artists collaborated to create a tongue-in-cheek sculpture that appears almost cartoon-like in its simplicity and wit. At first glance, it looks like a regular axe stuck into a piece of wood. But, upon closer inspection, the viewer sees the axe is growing a flower out of its handle, which, while smooth near the blade, becomes rough and more “natural” towards the handle. Once more, Banksy strikes with his creative genius, as the axe – a tool used to destroy living trees – becomes not only a living tree itself but also a life source…

Made in collaboration with Spanish artist Escif this handmade tool with a happy ending makes a fine decorative companion to a fireside or radiator.
