The artwork titled “Christina” was created by artist Mark Ryden in 1998 using oil paint on canvas. It belongs to the Lowbrow Art movement and is part of the figurative genre. This specific piece is included in “The Meat Show” series.
In the artwork, a girl with a somber expression and short, dark green hair is depicted wearing a light yellow dress. She holds a large, oversized bee in her hands. The background features an ethereal, almost surreal scene with bare, twisted branches adorned with vibrant, red flowers. On a table beside the girl, there is a bottle labeled “No. 11” with an image of Abraham Lincoln, accompanied by a slice of red meat. The juxtaposition of whimsical and eerily disquieting elements is characteristic of Ryden’s evocative and provocative style.
