On this work maded during the 2018 Mural Festival, Stikki Peaches used a picture of Dalí and added graphic elements related to his life and opinions (Christ on the cross, messages of peace, positive slogans, the symbol of Chanel's perfume No. 5 and oriental calligraphy...). On the Dali's face, you can find the phrase "Often Imitaded, Never Duplicated", Bansky's influence on his work.
