Description: In Devil in the Details, a red apple in the centre of the composition standing as a symbol of temptation and sin, instantly evoking the biblical narrative of the Garden of Eden. Beneath it slithers a pale, ribbon-like form, suggestive of a serpent coiled in deceit, with the phrase “in the details” painted in red almost as if whispered seductively into the viewer’s ear. The dark background amplifies the tension between innocence and danger, purity and corruption. This work reminds us not to overlook the small things. Just like the serpent’s whisper, it’s often the overlooked details that carry the greatest weight. Seemingly harmless elements can evolve into something far more dangerous, and in ignoring them, we risk letting subtle temptations grow into irreversible outcomes.
