After a discussion with one of the lecturers about my Adam and Eve concept and where I was headed with it, it was suggested to me to deeply research all the various aspects and metaphors that are within my idea. This will be to ensure I focus my intention and complete decide what exactly I want to say. At this point my ideas are very complicated, it seems as though I'm trying to tell a story rather than share a message with conviction.
On a positive note, my lecturer said that my idea to use a painted, collage type aesthetic with the use of the uncanny will suit the poster well and convey the message appropriately.
I specifically looked at how the metaphors with the apple and snake have been done before and what they actually mean to other people. I also research into the Adam and Eve story to get some background information to help me develop. From this process I discovered that the snake has a lot more connotations behind it than I expected to made an educated decision to remove it from the composition. This means I'll put most of the focus on the apple and the hand leading toward it.
