Banksy is an anonymous street artist. He uses stencil technique to create graffiti on the streets all around the world including New York, California, London, Jerusalem, Canada, and many more. His work aims to make statements that make people think about society. This picture stood out to me because it is so easy for people today to get too wrapped up in social media and their "likes" on pictures. In today's society people pose for social media purposes, and nothing else, just to make their life seem better than it may be. The crying boy is similar to the reaction of many people when they don't get as many "likes" as they wish to have. It is important all of us take a step back from social media and realize how minuscule the problem of not getting enough "likes" are compared to other's situations.
