Is that supposed to be a uterus or crucified jesus?

[-] jabathekek@sopuli.xyz 33 points 2 months ago

Don't know, but it'll be delicious either way.

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Mmm, jesus 🍽

[-] ArcticAmphibian@lemmus.org 19 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 18 points 2 months ago

I thought an egg was my brain, and a pan was drugs.

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.

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] Bougie_Birdie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 4 points 2 months ago

No you fool, it's a clearly vegan work about you eating chicken Jesus.

[-] kinther@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I'm fairly certain there's a bit of extra detail under the yolk that looks like a necklace as well.

[-] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Some life. Others just do with solar radiation or geothermal roaming

[-] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

I smell a new band name: Uterus jesus fried egg.

[-] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 months ago

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

The Passion of Gudetama

Marika if she was an Albinauric.

Or possibly your brain on drugs according to PSAs from the 90's.

[-] Louisoix@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Praise the Goddess. And then try finger, but whole.

[-] EunieIsTheBus@feddit.de 11 points 2 months ago

Am I the only one seeing an unterus in thos picture?

[-] helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

I belive that is the point. My interpretation is that this a pro-life image. The tortured "egg yoke child" is being murdered.

[-] johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

You are not.

[-] GreatDong3000@lemm.ee 11 points 2 months ago

I know it is annoying to say but this looks so much like AI

[-] jabathekek@sopuli.xyz 8 points 2 months ago

I don't see it, doesn't have the fuckery artefacts an AI would leave.

[-] rbn@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 months ago

Yeah, especially that dirt effect in the corner looks pretty weird to me for a human-made painting.

[-] mvpts@feddit.de 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It saddens me to say, but i agree.

[-] drdiddlybadger@pawb.social 1 points 2 months ago

I'm not sure what about this makes you think it's AI.

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

You guys should look at their instagram page. It’s not AI.

[-] Evotech@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Ai looks like real at all makes sense

[-] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

That stove is way too high for an egg. Breakfast really is doomed.

[-] mortemtyrannis@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 months ago

This can’t possibly be a reference to both the crucifixion of Jesus and female reproductive organs.

As if a conservative would know what the female anatomy looks like.

[-] Binette@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

This image kills me every time I see it.

[-] Shardikprime@lemmy.world -5 points 2 months ago

Egg yolks don't have eyes

What is with those nails what the hell is going on with the dirty hands

Why frying pan drenched in flame? You cooking egg or bistec?

Why are you cracking eggs like that, uncle Roger won't be happy

[-] Dkarma@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

It's a metaphor for your uterus under Christianity

[-] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

You sure? It's not clear cut for the eggsperts on the comments
