The Adam & Eve project in collaboration with Tom Franco

8 artists have made short video interpretations from scenes in Genesis 2 and 3. The decision to use the story of Adam and Eve as the basis for our project was immediately a questionable one. Without knowing, we had chosen a story that establishes a god of fear, a gigantic moral debt, gender hierarchy, and a rather superficial pleasure principal. The only way out of these questionable implications (as we could see) was to go backwards through the story. The role of each of the 8 artists is to find a way to undo their given scene: for example, how does one un-eat the apple?
