An Ode To Apples
2024
“Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about apples. I’m not exactly sure what about them captivates me, but I haven’t been able to shake the obsession with apples our culture seems to have.
Original sin is Eve biting the apple from the tree of knowledge, and villains are portrayed holding apples. Think about snow white, hunger games, harry potter, and there are other examples.
But still, apples are viewed in opposite ways too. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, is what they say. Are we villains, or sinful for eating healthy fruit? I guess it doesn’t stimulate the pharmaceutical industry to eat apples in that case.”
