Using the same stencil, several prints of the Peace Banana were spray-painted onto the separation wall between Palestine and Israel in Bethlehem. This artistic action not only served to visually design the section of the wall, but was also intended to serve as a symbol of peace and unity in a conflict-ridden region. The Peace Banana, a recurring motif of the artist, conveys a message of hope and solidarity across borders and conflicts. By placing it in such a symbolic place as the separation wall, the art action attracted a lot of attention and helped to stimulate a discussion about the problems of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
