Meaning and Analysis of  the Banksy Bomb Hugger

Among the most famous works by Banksy, Bomb Hugger represents a little girl with her hair tied up in a ponytail. Sole figure of this silkscreen print, with half-closed eyes and a sweet expression on her face, she embraces a bomb like it was her favourite toy.  The tender pink background accentuates the innocence of the iconic Banksy Bomb Girl and makes stronger the contrast with the dangerous explosive.

With Bomb Hugger Banksy wants to arouse anxiety and bewilder those who admire her: the image is a sharp criticism of the government and the media when they portray the war in a positive light. The artist here seems to suggest how love prevails over war and how the innocent embrace of a little girl has the power to defuse the threatening bomb.

Banksy - Bomb Hugger - History of the Artwork

A similar image appeared for the first time on a wall in London in 2003 and in the same year also in Brighton, a seaside town half an hour from London.

The work was born as graffiti: Banksy created the image using the iconic stencil. The unique pieces have reached extremely high auction prices and this work appeared in many other versions with different background colours. In 2003 it was reproduced in a limited edition of 600 copies of which this piece is part.

The child figure is a leitmotiv in the work of the street artist and it is the basis of many masterpieces by Banksy: artworks like Girl with Balloon and Ice Cream Bomb Girl all feature a little girl, very similar to the same subject of Bomb Hugger.

Ice Cream Bomb Girl, in particular, deals with the theme of war: in this case a little girl is holding an ice cream in her hand but a dynamite is inside it and seems to be about to explode.
