Seven Deadly Sins
A project inspired by the Seven Deadly Sins according to Christian teachings. In this project, I thought about how the sins would look and depicted them as invasive germs as you would look into them through a microscope. To make consistent illustrations and make them as a set, each artwork was strictly created using only 6 colours and 5 patterns.
WRATH
“A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger”
(Proverbs 15:1 ESV).
GLUTTONY
“For the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty, and slumber will clothe them with rags”
(Proverbs 23:21 ESV).
LUST
“But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart”
(Matthew 5:28 ESV).
SLOTH
“Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise”
(Proverbs 6:6 ESV).
GREED
“Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’”
(Hebrews 13:5 ESV).
ENVY
“A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot”
(Proverbs 14:30 ESV).
PRIDE
“Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall”
(Proverbs 16:18 ESV).
