Creation Story
Year: 2019
Category: Conceptual / Reenactment
This project reimagines the biblical story of Adam and Eve — but this time, the characters are Black, and the forbidden fruit is not an apple but a coconut.
It is a playful yet subversive retelling, challenging the dominance of Western imagery in spiritual narratives. By placing African bodies at the center of this foundational myth, the work asks: Who decides what creation looks like? Who gets to see themselves in the origin of human history?
