The Goddess

HBomba's work, diverting "La Colonne de la Déesse" in Lille, offers a bold reflection on gender stereotypes and female power.

By transforming the goddess's gown into a sadomasochistic costume, the artist denounces sexist clichés associated with powerful women. The substitution of the torch with a whip expresses HBomba's intent to deconstruct traditional symbols and critique misogynistic perceptions.

HBomba's deliberate choice to portray a sexist vision of a powerful woman can be interpreted as a sharp critique of regressive attitudes towards women in leadership positions.

The artwork transforms into a visual manifesto for gender equality, celebrating powerful women for their skills and accomplishments while rejecting retrogressive sexist attitudes. In essence, it becomes a pamphlet against misogynistic thinking and an ode to equality.
