abstract shapes

[newwave88]

Hi! I am on a MacBook using AI 2022. I was wondering how you go about creating shapes like this in Illustrator? (the red/dark pinkish shapes). I thought this could be done with the squeeze warp option, but I am having trouble replicating. Any help in the right direction would be much appreciated. Thank you.

There is a Metaball script here:
