Non-Violence Art Project
The “Non-Violence” knotted gun was created by Swedish artist Carl Fredrik Reuterswärd as a tribute to John Lennon after he was shot and killed in New York City in December 1980. This resulted in The Non-Violence Project Foundation, a non-profit organization promoting peace and social change through education. Famous ambassadors include the surviving Beatle members Paul McCarthy and Ringo Star, Yoko Ono, and Mohammed Ali.

The knotted pistol “Non-Violence” is produced in different materials and sizes. This copy is made of plastic and uniquely painted / edited by the Swedish artist and ambassador of this project Carolina Gynning. In all work of Carolina Gynning the butterfly has a central role as a symbol of rebirth and freedom.
