Baby With a Handgun

This mural by BiP (Believe in People), located near the foot of Franklin Street, depicts a gender-ambiguous child in a police uniform holding a handgun and wearing a pink body camera. The image plays with stark contrasts such as childhood and authority, innocence and danger, toy and weapon—inviting viewers to confront tensions around power, identity, and violence. Created as a temporary work on a future development site, the mural reflects BiP’s interest in visual and psychological dualities.
