A is for apple

Item

Title
A is for apple
Description
The apple is made from random pages ripped from a decaying dictionary and adhered to a Styrofoam core. The 'excelsior' packaging inside the crate is coated with PVA/starch mix, cut and curled from "A" pages of an antique dictionary, including the pages listing hereditary apple varieties. The apple is recurring theme in both European mythology and Christian history: a long time embodiment of both learning and danger, sometimes it is just as simple as an apple for the teacher. -- Artist's statement.
