Mexico non-violence art features guns with knotted barrels

A knotted gun sculpture painted by Mexican artist Paola Delfin is displayed at a park in the city of Monterrey, Mexico, Thursday April 2, 2015. Thirteen knotted gun sculptures painted by various artists are on display in this city that for years has been plagued with violence generated by warring drug cartels. The original knotted gun sculpture was designed and created by Carl Fredrik Reutersward as a memorial to John Lennon after he was shot and killed in 1980 and is now displayed outside of the United Nations headquarters in New York City.
