In the bond between man and woman there is a universal sense that two can become one, in mind, body, and spirit, and this connection is the ultimate expression of opposites forming a union that is perfect and complete.
Genesis is expressive of tenderness and passion, with the intertwined figures conveying a sense of bliss and fulfillment. Organic in its beauty, the bodies of the two are drawn together in a flowing composition that recalls the natural world of all living things—sinuous tree limbs, or the melding of two streams. Human desire culminates in unity, balance, and an unending continuity. A primal longing to be united and escape our singularity, Genesis embodies two figures unified as one, and goes to the very heart of our basic human desire.
