A reinterpretation of the biblical story of the forbidden fruit through the lens of contemporary abstract language.
The central figure—a stylized Eve—is depicted as a snow-white silhouette, whose contours hint at femininity and vulnerability. In the left corner, a red square symbolizes the confusion and defiance that overwhelm Eve. To the right of the figure is a massive, almost living tree, executed in deep blue-black tones with a glossy glaze. Its branches, framed by black outlines, resemble the twists of a snake—an allusion to the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Against the background of the tree is a bright, almost blinding yellow circle—fruit, knowledge, source of light, and fall all at once. At the bottom of the composition, black shapes create a sense of a boundary, a fall, the loss of paradise. The white background of the panel emphasizes the drama of the scene, making every color and shape especially expressive.
