About this artwork
The apple draws its trail through the cultural scene. From Adam and Eve to Wilhelm Tell and Snow White to the logo of the digital age.
In the individualized mass society, the human spirit fades and succumbs to the temptation of a digital ennuis. The androgynous figure merges with the white canvas, only the pink apple is artificially staged.

« Based on the formal gesture of the concrete color stroke, I design portraits and scenes that, in different contexts, take the narrative account into account. »
Esslinger was at the beginning of her artistic career with textile, before she turned to painting. Her many travels and residency stays worldwide influence the cultural and sociopolitical issues that Esslinger deals with in her art. She also works with cardboard collages that critically question consumption.
