I'm doing A project on Banksy and it would be helpful if I could get other peoples views on what the Bomb Hugger picture means to them.

I'm doing A project on Banksy and it would be helpful if I could get other peoples views on what the Bomb Hugger picture means to them. To me it represents the human love affair with violence. The juxtaposition of the bomb (an inherently violent object) and of a girl locked in an embrace (an inherently peaceful image) reinforces the irony of our relationship with violence and war. I think at the same time it touches on the innocence of children.

With war being so prevalent these days, our future generations are going to grow up hugging bombs instead of teddy bears. It's along the same lines as that sticker where these kids are falling in love atop a pile of guns.

Banksy is thinking that the young ones today are growing up to admire the wrong things in life, and I totally agree. He's done it so blatantly here: He said in one of his very few interviews "You try and create a stencil that you can spray up in a couple of minutes that tells the story you want to get accross" Job well done here me thinks. retro I'm doing A project on Banksy and it would be helpful if I could get other peoples views on what the Bomb Hugger picture means to them.
