Description:

Here is the interior view of the opened canvas. The red eggs symbolize birth, potential, women's history in western religion. The snake, of course, in its most basic meaning, represents that snake in the garden, the bringer of change. In the natural sense, there is danger on this canvas - snakes eat eggs. Metaphor abounds...what will eventually take these girls?
