The installation work, Still Life with Stem Cells, also expresses her opinions over the debates; it is a personal response to the issues of society, which requires the audience to form opinions based on its presentation in the work. In the work a little girl plays with grossly malformed lumps of flesh, which are symbolic of genetic material, in a grotesque parody of humanity. It is the sharp contrast between the perfection and innocence of the child, although also artificial, and repulsiveness of fleshy masses surrounding her that causes a shocked or emotional response from the audience Julie Rrap. On the other hand, in her work Overstepping Rrap presents not only her personal opinion of issues in society, which in this case, includes gender stereotyping and the extreme measures taken for beauty, but also makes a powerful statement about the culture of society as a whole. The work is one which not only attempts to engage the audience to form their own opinions, as does Piccinini's, but also endeavours to sway the respondent to matching Rrap's own views of society and its flaws.
The artworks show the audience the issues that affect the artist, and the world as a whole. In the work Camouflage #1 (Ursula), Rrap is commenting on the imposed ideals of society on women, through the use of a familiar 'Hollywood' styled character. However, the character is artificial, metallic, and brittle. 'Ursula' is beginning to morph into an image which is unattractive to society, although in this she is merely reflecting the role in which she is cast by society. The work insinuates that although the character may try to appease her society, in reflecting its culture, she has become undesirable. Piccinini addresses the social issues that were relevant at the time of the artwork's conception; in the work Part I: Laboratory Procedures, this, again, was the concern of scientific advances and society's ethics in dealing with these advances.
