Art Basel took over Miami this week, but perhaps one of the most moving pieces of art released in Miami this week wasn't featured in a some posh gallery with a polished concrete floor, but on the streets of the Wynwood art district.
Artist Eduardo Kobra, well known in the street art scene for his massive, colorful murals, turned Yoda from Star Wars into an activist for peace, holding a stop sign written with the movie's iconic font. "Stop Wars," the sign reads.

Although Kobra's Instagram and Facebook post both attracted a fair amount of attention, the picture was also submitted to Reddit on Saturday morning, where it quickly hit the site's frontpage and brought in over 1 million views on Imgur in just 4 hours.
The piece comes at a critical time in America after a recent mass shooting that occurred in San Bernardino on Wednesday, leaving 14 dead. The attack has resulted in subsequent push for harsher gun laws from many.
Mashable has reached out to Kobra for additional information and comments about his art but he was not immediately available.
