Original artwork description
My paraphrase of temptation and fall of man.
Adam is in Paradise garden, and he is tempted to taste a fruit form the Tree of Knowledge. He is expelled for his disobedience. Paradise lost.
“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.” ― John Milton, Paradise Lost
NB. The sculpture is a styrofoam (flamingo) mannequin which is painted with acrylics, varnished and glued to a granite plate.
The sculpture is stable and will hold in a long time, but does not tolerate a hard handling of the plastic torso. The sculpture is to be moved by using the granite support.

Styrofoam (flamingo), granite as a support, acrylics, varnish
