However, true to Banksy's signature style, there's a twist: prominently displayed in block capitals on their jumpers are the slogans "Punks Not Dead" and "Thug For Life." This humourous piece uses Banksy's well-known stencil technique to juxtapose the image of innocent grandmothers with rebellious and unexpected slogans. It playfully challenges stereotypes and conventions, adding a witty commentary on rebellion and ageing in contemporary culture.13de 20
