(Part 1 of 2)
Pride,
envy, gluttony, wrath, sloth, greed and lust... the "Seven Deadly Sins"
are a classical theme in western art history. In this series I start
from the traditional scheme of the 17th century and transfer it - often
ironically - to our times. Excessive use of smartphones, junk food,
gambling, sexism - the content is very modern, even if it is presented
in a deliberate artificial fashion. The single objects appear in natural
size creating a sense of availability and closeness, which is further
enhanced by the reflection of the observer in the high glossy surface of
the works.
The size of the individual work is 60 x 50 cm.
