Pada karyanya yang bertema “Rangda”, salah satu dari banyak karya yang telah dibuat cukup menarik untuk dilakukan penelitian. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode ikonografi Erwin Panofsky. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui makna karya seni lukis t-shirt seniman I Nyoman Ngurah Ardika yang bertemakan rangda.Tahap pra-ikonografi, ilustrasi yang digambarkan merupakan sebuah komunikasi bahwa rangda merupakan sosok yang akan membawa kematian bagi manusia. Pada tahapan analisis ikonografi digunakan teori Roland Barthes untuk mengungkap lambang yang ada pada karya tersebut. Mitos yang hadir sebagai petanda dalam karya selanjutnya dihubungkan dengan tema dan konsep yang tersirat. “Rangda” telah menjadi mitos yang ada pada masyarakat Bali. Analisis interpretasi ikonologis, Ilustrasi rangda karya I Nyoman Ngurah Ardika Yasa diciptakan tidak dengan mengedepankan nilai keindahan secara konvensional, namun berdasarkan imajinasi atas rasa dan pengalaman estetis yang diterima pada masa yang lalu. Pada karyanya wujud rangda digambarkan dengan penggayaan bentuk melalui penyederhaan dan deformasi bentuk, sehingga karakter rangda terlihat berbeda dengan wujud rangda secara tradisi. Sehingga dapat dikatakan bahwa ilustrasi rangda ini mengikuti gaya postmodern champ yaitu menolak keotentikan atau keorisinilan untuk tujuan dan kepentingannya sendiri.

The purpose of the analysis of the Bade Wheeled Phenomenon in the Ngaben Ceremony Structure in Bali is to reveal the meaning of Wheeled Bade. Bade is known in traditional Balinese culture as an important tool in the Ngaben Ceremony in Bali. However, some Balinese people have replaced the word "bade" with "bade wheels" as a means of Ngaben Ceremony. The problem is centered on: 1) What is the meaning of "bade" in the Ngaben Ceremony?; 2) What is the meaning of "wheeled bade?"

The results of the study show that: 1) Ngaben using Bade has a socio-religious meaning for Hindus in Bali. Ngaben is always celebrated using Bade, accompanied by various forms of Hindu sacred ceremonies. Bade has cultural meaning as an instrumental of the pitra yadnya rite that can be useful in fostering kinship in Balinese society; 2) The phenomenon of wheeled bade in the structure of the Ngaben ceremony has added economic value to mediators and users. On the one hand, the wheeled Bade in the structure of the Ngaben Ceremony has reduced the meaning of sacredness and the meaning of solidarity. This happened along with the change in the instrumental meaning of Bade in the Ngaben ceremony.
