The graffiti, located at Plaça de la Virreina on the corner of Or street, is a plea for peace amid conflicts between the USA, Israel, and Iran. The artwork features Punch the monkey hugging a plush toy under the slogan Stop hate. However, the original message was partially covered by a photograph criticizing the artist for his perceived role in gentrification.
The mural's subject, Punch the macaque, is a real animal from the Ichikawa Zoo in Japan. The monkey became an internet sensation after zookeepers provided him with an Ikea plush toy to replace his mother, who abandoned him after his birth in July 2025.
