A Sarajevo Rose is a concrate scar caused by a mortar shell's explosion that was later filled with red resin. Because Sarajevo was a site of intense urban warfare and suffered thousands of shell explosions during the Siege of Sarajevo, the marked concrete patterns are a unique feature to the city.

Rose Sarajevo is a tribute to this and to the surrealist period, which Marcel Duchamp was Rrose Selavvy, this artistic period was born in reaction to the first world war. Rrose Sélavy, or Rose Sélavy, was one of the pseudonyms of artist Marcel Duchamp. The name, a pun, sounds like the French phrase "Eros, c'est la vie", which translates to English as "Eros, that's life".
