Coming from an edition of 150, ‘Bomb Hugger’ tackles issues such as violence and its relation to youth. In ‘Bomb Hugger’, Banksy juxtaposes a playful and childish colour with the shocking representation of a girl holding a bomb.
Linking to the idea of ‘tree hugging’ and interpreting it in a disturbing and dark manner, Banksy raises questions on how weapons are perceived in the 21st century.
