By using extra large consumer products, such as cleaning supplies and hand soaps, The Narfs contrasts the banality of objects with minimalist, eerie figures. The religious Madonna figure juxtaposed with mass-market consumerism brings into view ideas of purity and contamination, both spiritual and corporal. Outlines reminiscent of sketches and layered mixed-media texture give the painting a raw quality-almost unfinished.
