Banksy Consumerism (Destroy Capitalism T-Shirt) – Street Art Print

This powerful artwork by Banksy, known as “Consumerism,” depicts a line of people queuing to purchase a t-shirt from a stall. The t-shirt prominently displays the slogan “DESTROY CAPITALISM,” creating a stark irony and social commentary on consumer culture and its relationship to anti-establishment sentiment. 1 The figures in the queue are diverse, suggesting a broad cross-section of society. The stark black and white imagery against a neutral background further emphasizes the message. 2 The price tag of £30 on the t-shirt adds another layer of commentary on the commodification of even rebellious ideas.
