A modern interpretation of Adam and Eve, and the temptations of the modern world.

For my bachelor’s thesis I explored the tale of Adam and Eve, and with it the temptations of the modern world. Throughout the book you follow their story, guided by the original biblical texts.

Taking inspiration from painting, I incorporated my models into those works and into the narrative. As in the paintings, my models are covered by flowers and leaves in the first chapter, where Adam and Eve feel no shame about their nudity. In the last, they are aware of it, and so they cover themselves.
