The Seven Deadly Sins
from my series
Dialogues & Anti-logues
The
Dialogue series,
which has been a major preoccupation for the last several years,
is based
on a simple illusionist form of two cartoon faces in confrontation.
Its
artistic expansion and development has been certainly inspired
on by my
studies of
the teachings of the noted philosopher, Martin Buber (the
famous I-Thou / I-It paradigm)
and
its application in modern Gestalt
psychology. The I-Thou
Dialogues show two faces
in harmony and balance,
while in the I-It
paintings (which I call Anti-logues), the second face
is diminished or non-existent.
The "negative" Dialogues (or Anti-logues) can fit the framework of the
Seven Deadly Sins
and are included below. To see the complete Dialogue series press the
