***Note: First image is detail. Second is shot of entire piece. ***

This piece is definitely a one of a kind original work of art. The name comes from the question everyone asks when they see the piece: Where's the snake? The answer is simple -- the snake is gone and Chava (Eve) stands alone. This is the moment just before she makes her decision to eat.

.....Chava Decides
.....This is my decision. This is my first decision.
.....Do I eat and allow my mind and body to grow,
.....Knowing it will bring death into the world...
.....Or live in ignorance?

The snake is not present, because the focus is on her decision. In my midrash, Chava makes a choice, she is not tricked by the snake. She listens to the snake and then does something she’s never done — she makes a decision on her own — thereby beginning history (herstory, if you like).

The piece is entirely hand-embroidered and stitched. There is a hanger on the back which can be used to hang the piece as is, or it can be framed.
