Eve is a figure in the Book of Genesis in
the Hebrew Bible. According to the creation myth of the Abrahamic religions,
she was the first woman. In Islamic tradition, Eve is known as Adam's wife and
the first woman although she is not specifically named in the Quran.
According to the second chapter of Genesis, Eve was created
by God by taking her from the rib of Adam, to be Adam's companion. She succumbs
to the serpent's temptation to eat the forbidden fruit from the tree of the
knowledge of good and evil. She shares the fruit with Adam, and as a result the
first humans are expelled from the Garden of Eden. Christian churches differ on
how they view both Adam and Eve's disobedience to God, and to the consequences
that those actions had on the rest of humanity. Christian and Jewish teachings
sometimes hold Adam and Eve to a different level of responsibility for the
fall, although Islamic teaching holds both equally responsible. More on Eve
Elle Hanley is
a self taught American Fine Art photographer currently living and working in
Seattle. Her work is alluring and unexpected, focusing mainly on capturing
beauty and emotion in a still shot of time. She began photography seven years
ago as an artistic outlet and it grew into a full fledged devotion. Elle enjoys
the challenges in creating something classic and timeless from a thoroughly
modern process and the contradiction between the two is a strong theme
throughout her work. Currently she is mixing the realms of art and fashion,
working to expand her current open series, as well as creating self portraits.
always working on several projects and bringing new and intriguing characters
to life to photograph. More
