22. No Future

Stenciled in a residential area in Southampton, London, Banksy showcased the poignant juxtaposition of the balloon – commonly used as a symbolism of hope – and the “No Future” scribble. The piece didn’t last long as it was whitewashed in just a week after its discovery in 2010.

23. I Remember When All This Was Trees

Discovered in the ruins outside the Packard Plant in Detroit, Michigan in 2010, the piece featured a young child with what seemed like a dejected face of contemplation on the city’s state of poverty. With Detroit suffering from a financial crisis, trees were replaced by illegal settlers and homeless people.
