Miss Bugs AWESOME 'Virgin Mary' Piece

Miss Bugs is a collaboration founded in the early part of 2007; consisting of two people, one boy and one girl = Miss & Bugs. In this transitional body of work, Miss Bugs draws initial influence from the imagery of religious icons and paintings. Playing within the limitations of the composition that is characteristic of religious images of the 'Virgin Mary', modern throwaway imagery is mixed up with the symbolic, to create powerful visions of the female form. The decorative element, black graphic line and flatness are intrinsic to the work. The figures are depicted with veiled or partly masked faces and the eye is drawn to the delicate hands. The slight distortion of scale gives the figures an otherworldly feel and warps the modern idea of conventional beauty.

Just wanted to know if you're calling the Warhol Flowers the 'throwaway imagery'?
BTW- Warhols' Flowers were also used in the body for Miss Bugs Lady Of The Land.
