Satirical, playful, and provocative, Trolley Hunters by Banksy made its debut in 2006 at the artist's Los Angeles exhibition titled "Barely Legal," held in an industrial estate.
The artwork serves as a commentary on modern society's struggle to survive economically. It contrasts the image of modern man's inability to make ends meet with the primal instincts of early humans. In the print, three cavemen armed with basic spears represent nature, while they confront three supermarket trolleys symbolizing modernity. Banksy cleverly juxtaposes these elements to highlight how far removed contemporary society has become from its origins in nature.The juxtaposition between modernity and nature is underscored by the artist's playful approach, challenging the viewer's expectations and inviting reflection on the evolution of human civilization and its impact on the natural world.
