The Apple, 2020
Threads 30 cm x 30 cm
Eve is traditionally seen as the headstrong, the one who wounds and the cause of original sin, the fall of man. But for me the moment Eve takes the apple is of the utmost importance: after all, it is by eating that apple that man gets his/her most important characteristic: the knowledge of good and evil. In times of #metoo and #timesup it is a beautiful thought that the creation of man as a human being started with the act of a WOMAN.

Persephone, 2019
threads 115cm b x 55 cm h
I walked with my love into the depth of the depth. He had to stay and I had to go back. From then on I live like Persephone, now on the merry Olympus we built together and then in the realm of shadows and memories.
