• The Concept of Ars Chimaera: In this series, Hades "undresses" modern social and political concepts to their visual and associative structures. She views these concepts as "chimeric toys" that modern individuals are often hostages of.

• Visual Representation: The work typically depicts the Statue of Liberty transformed into a chimeric figure. One iteration of the painting (2024) portrays the statue as being "doused with oil," symbolizing a sinister intersection of freedom and geopolitics.

• Themes: The artwork critiques the "chimeric" nature of modern ideals, suggesting that concepts like freedom, equality, and brotherhood can become monstrous or distorted in the contemporary political landscape.
