Description: This unique sculpture embodies the essence of the phrase “Make Love Not War.” Crafted delicately, it features a heart-shaped grenade atop a marble base, representing the transformation of destructive energy into a symbol of love and peace. The juxtaposition of the inherently violent object, the grenade, transformed into a heart—a universal symbol of love—evokes a powerful message. The choice of marble as its pedestal signifies permanence and strength in conveying this profound statement. The artwork challenges viewers to contemplate the duality of human nature, urging a shift from conflict towards compassion and understanding.
