About this artwork
The symbol is a powerful tool, a prestige practiced by religions at all levels of knowledge and in different cultures.
The religious warning has deep roots in the cultural and popular fabric, manipulates the faithful, inculcates the knowledge of the absolute and has influenced man's behavior for millennia.
“Inside” is a symbolic representation of this outcome, a narrative of the paradox that religions have instilled in popular culture.
The apple… (from the Latin malum = evil) is anatomically illustrated and hides the forbidden fruit inside.
The fulcrum of the illustration is surrounded by a sunburst crown that highlights the sacredness of the symbol, wrapped in hearts and snakes to indicate chapter 3 of genesis: we will never know if temptation will lead to sin or liberation.

« The substance scandalizes me. I make fun of the shape. »
Luigi Notarnicola is an artist based in Italy whose work has been exhibited internationally. His art has been featured in publications such as Artribune, Quotidiano di Puglia, and Itinerari nell'arte.
Notarnicola's works explore the pictorial surface as a dynamic space in which pattern, color, and form interact. The repeated mark is not a decorative element, but a structure that organizes the visual field, introduces rhythm, and constructs the artwork.
Through clear chromatic fields and recurring modules, the surface is activated and becomes a place of balance between order and variation.
Within this process the artist's language takes shape, an essential visual system in which the sign, reiterated and transformed, generates ever new configurations.
The images thus emerge as fields of relation, where figure and abstraction remain in constant dialogue.
