‘Eve and Adam’ illustrates an interpretation of the traditional religious parable. According to the original narrative, these two figures were the original parents and were responsible for the fall of humanity. The piece explores the characters’ discovery of the world around them.
It also started with a desire to display the capacity and capability of human hands, as entire stories can unfold through the dance of our fingers and palms.
