This is just a VERY basic interpretation as there is much more behind the actual meaning if you look into it.Every aspect of this cover means something. From the earth in the top right corner, to the fires, the black soil with the withered tree, spacious sunlit landscape and of course the red apple. I won’t go into everything but here is a little…

I wanted to take the viewer and place them in that specific “moment of honesty” where you  are faced with this setting and a choice.. Set in a rather spacious desolate atmosphere, there are actually 4 parts to this cover. The clouds and almost greek looking buildings, which symbolize the heavens. The dark landscape with the old tree symbolizes “limbo“.. In this piece of art, Limbo is now home to the fabled tree from the garden of Eden with the forbidden fruit.

Noticeably beneath “limbo” are the fires of hell, both the apple and fire are bright and colorful showing the obvious relation between the two. Also in color but less noticeable would be planet earth in the top right corner off in the distance.

Much greater than this whole explanation is the simple fact that in our moment of honesty we are dealt with choices & decisions to be made whether we realize it or not and these the biblical stories gave me a great canvas to express that notion.

I am very interested with all religions, and this is just my spin on it. You don’t even need to believe in a religon to respect “the moment of honesty”, as for these life lessons and hardships we deal with in every day life regardless of any affiliation. Life is about choices and  we all face them, believer or not, in our moment of honesty.
