About the AK-47 Wall Art Print:

Aurum Geminus – Latin for "Gold Gemini" – encapsulates the concept of duality and opposing forces, symbolized by two gold AK-47s facing each other. This powerful art piece juxtaposes mankind and Mother Nature, exploring the tension between human vanity and environmental preservation.

The gold AK-47s represent humanity's obsession with wealth and opulence, an ironic twist considering gold's formation over hundreds of thousands of years. Despite its ancient origin, human greed and exploitation threaten the very earth where this precious metal is formed, causing destruction in mere centuries.

Symbolism of the Dollar Bill Origami Butterflies:

The butterflies, made from dollar bills, symbolize capitalism's clash with the natural world, contrasting with real butterflies' delicate beauty.

Open Magazine and Bullet Fillings:

One magazine on the left AK-47 is open, revealing clear bullets filled with various symbolic elements, each representing different impacts on our planet and people.

• Peridot: A green gemstone symbolizing compassion, increasing strength, and vitality when in human presence.
• Oil: Represents man's greed for natural resources and the resulting toxic waste.
• Tanzanite: A stone of transmutation, shifting colors to symbolize oceanic dispersal and ecological changes.
