Food and Gravity
Apple Paradox
This series of illustrations explores the theme of gravity and food through an experimental comic.
The story begins with an apple falling—not from a tree, but from the top of a skyscraper in New York City. As it descends, each floor reveals a different story, with each scene examining unique symbolic meanings tied to the apple, such as knowledge, health, temptation, and discovery.
The comic invites readers to consider these themes from fresh perspectives, using the apple’s journey as a lens through which to explore its many cultural and scientific associations.
The comic uses the apple’s journey to explore these themes in a layered and thought-provoking way, inviting readers to consider new perspectives on something as simple as a piece of fruit influenced by the force of gravity.

The layout was designed to gradually reveal each room of the building and its inhabitants as the reader turns the pages.
This allows the rooms to be explored individually, while still enabling the entire illustration to be viewed as a single, complete scene when fully opened.
