Temptation

About The Artwork

Gadi depicts temptation through the allegorical tree of knowledge. A man reaches out to the tree, the snake peaking between its branches. Feet on the ground, knowledge in the heavens above, and the apple of knowledge at the core, Gadi questions the notion of temptation. Is it good or bad? He does not make conclusions but leaves us with an open question. He continues, “temptation is so integral to human life,” he reflects. “We are always presented with tempting opportunities. Whether they are right for us or not is up to us.”
