Give Stefan Sagmeister 10,000 bananas & some glue, and he give you a giant Banana Wall, part of an art installation on Things I Have Learned In My Life So Far exhibition.

In the Banana Wall, Sagmeister used green bananas to create the motto: Self-confidence Produces Fine Results and ripe banana as the background.

The whole bananas gradually decays over 24 days of the exhibition.
