      It’s an egg going into the frying pan. You can see the yolk and egg white, and if you look near the hands there’s shells.

      I didn’t see a uterus until you mentioned it, but now I can see it with the shells being the ovaries.

      I’d still peg this as Jesus though. There seems to be an impression of muscles in the torso, thighs, and pubis.

      But the overall shape and the symbolism of the egg definitely speaks womb. Maybe it’s a message that eggs (gift from the womb) are a sacrifice (crucifixion) which sustains us (Jesus). Big J was into the idea that we had to eat him for our salvation. Or maybe it’s a commentary that life eats life.

      Little of column A, little of column B.

      To me it reads as one of those anti-abortion pieces put up on banners outside a church.

      Or a pro abortion stance?

      Or perhaps it is both on purpose to make people fight in the comments.

        How do you see it working as a pro abortion stance?

        I only see it as a possible anti-. The hands look like demon hands, the yolk looks sad as it gets “sacrificed.” Also, there is only one yolk, so I don’t see it as a uterus.

          Something about forced birthing and not caring about the outcomes after birth. Which is absolutely a Republican thing.

          But I def think it leans more into the anti-abortion side.

          As for the reproductive parts I see the shells as ovaries, the connecting white as fallopian tubes, the yolk and falling white as uterus and more below.

          But hey, art is subjective.

      It could be both IMO

      I’m leaning a bit towards Jesus because of his story but the symbolic choices lead to other ideas as well

      It’s a conversation piece for sure
