In Just a Few Nips, the artist pays homage to Frida Kahlo’s painting from 1935, A Few Small Nips, which portrays a tragic scene where a wounded woman lies on a blood-stained bed. A male figure stands beside her, suggesting his involvement in the violent act. Above them, a banner in Spanish, translating to “Just a few small nips.” In Marshall's reinterpretation of the piece, the tortured female figure appears with her skin lacerated and severed limbs and head. Marshall engages with a specific history of painting that deals with machismo and violence on women, implementing also her reference to the eel’s desperate journey from rivers where they lacerate themselves on rocks and riverbeds to reach the sea, driven by the compulsive drive to breed.
