Description
Adam and Eve are universal symbols of man and woman. Beings that are constantly drawn to one another. Before and after the fall, they desire to know each other, life, and themselves. However, in Christian interpretation, after they consume the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, evil interferes and introduces various obstacles into their experience and their communication. Adam and Eve carry the 'impulse of life' given by God the Creator. This gift is embodied in the ability to co-create new life. It is this aspect that I emphasize in my work
