Apparently you took the Bible and made a big porn of it.

(The Bible itself is a big porn, but you've done better than its nameless authors)

the scene suggests multiple explanations, I'd say. For starters, biblical allusions are afoot here, namely the account of Eve's transgression and the repercussion.
Used to symbolize purity often through the setting of the paschal, the lamb takes on a closeness to Christ. Lambs are also used as emblems of faith. Death by laceration, the blood from the lamb's neck can refer to the christening of Jesus though it could also suggest a self-asserted release from Christian sentiments. The vapor trails are seen as carriers of the misdeed to a possibly divine being or overseer. The figment of god seldom manifests itself into what is interpretable, so the way the vapors continue off the scene contend to this.
The focal point of the scene is the woman in white pouring an ingredient of a sand-like density into the culminated puddle. It is unclear what her intention is, though one can assume she is covering her mistake. Three women, possibly virgins, surround the woman in white. Their left arms are stretched out to her while their right arms are contoured over their individual wombs.
In the background, framed in a black box-shaped building, a character looks on in awe at the woman in white's crime. An ersatz shadow of sorts deviates from her body, repeating the gesture.
The foreground assumes a suggestive scene as well. Two winged serpents crawl toward the woman in white. Placed in the lower right-hand corner, a man grabs his heart. His face suggests a sense of disbelief and fear.
After disobeying God's command in the garden of Eden, Eve, having given into temptation, pulls a fruit from the tree and consumes it. Eve has been misled by a serpent in the tree to directly violate God. As punishment, women for eons to follow must endure the pain of child birth, etc. Accordingly, the scene assign it's own elements to interpret the biblical nuance. The woman in white is Eve and has soiled the icon of purity and faith in God by killing the lamb. The three virgins hold their wombs in pain, seeing as the former character has inherently ruined their innocence and doomed them to endure the weight of femininity. The man in the foreground is Adam, who, as Eve does, looses his innocence in the wake of the two serpents. /////

The three women could also be the Moira or Weird sisters from Greco-Roman mythology, each representing a tense in time. ///

I wouldn't mind knowing what the artist intended here.
