Birth of Eve (Medium-Size)

In this allegorical sculpture, Carbonell represents the biblical legend of Adam and Eve in his style. This formidable representation depicts Adam bracing Eve from behind as she emerges from his rib to be his companion and forever becomes the mother of all the living. 

Carbonell's personal philosophy sought the essence of form and the absence of detail, empowering a feeling of monumentality in his sculptures.

Moore's monumentality and the simplicity found in Brancusi, Archipenko, and Arp's works are evident in his works. However, Carbonell's distinctive and personal style is evident in the quality of his forms, which makes his work highly recognizable and defines his own art.

Carbonell imparted a sublime universal beauty to his sculptures, which made his work transcendent and permanent for future generations to understand and appreciate.
