EVEolution
One Origin - Two Perspectives
Artist Statement
“EVEolution” is an abstract reflection about our “genetic mother”, through carved layers revealing light and shadow. Which is the front, and which is the back side?
The monochromatic use of red tones and the carved-out forms are intended to add a sense of life, depth, mystery, and a timeless feel between Humanity and Earth..

In other words, she is defined as the most recent woman from whom all living humans descend in an unbroken line purely through their mothers and through the mothers of those mothers, back until all lines converge on one woman.” sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_Eve
