The editorial, captioned “The Corruption of Eve” was recently showcased at the 2015 edition of the Lagos Photo Festival alongside select iconic photographs that are of symbolic stature in Nigerian music.
There are four major scenes in this photo editorial
…the first depicts Adam and Eve in the innocence of their nakedness. Seyi Shay is dressed in a flowry, ethereal gown, whose nude tone closely matches her skin colour to give a less obvious interpretation of Eve’s nudity.
… in the second scene we witness the dramatic emergence of the serpent, played by a striking male model in a full snakeskin suit, seducing Eve and tempting her with the forbidden fruit.
…then we see Eve fleeing the garden after succumbing to the serpent’s proposal. Her innocence is lost and she can no longer remain in its purity.
She is dressed in gorgeous, dramatically movement-friendly garments with leaf prints/appliques signifying her covering her nakedness.
Nice concept
