To hear no evil, one can either choose to block out the voices which conspire to perpetuate evil around us or make the choice of intentionally silencing the toxic chatter that bubbles up within. A sound and voice can only exist if there is someone to hear it and this proverb advises one to be mindful of who or what we choose to listen to.
In this artwork, the amused Wise Woman is found covering her ears with her colour coated hands while laughing heartily. The source of her happiness and joy is unknown, but one thing is for certain: she has found bliss in the silence. This silence could be from her tempting thoughts or the insidious voices that surround her. It is the quiet that seems to bring her immense pleasure, making us wonder what the voices in our lives are which disturb our peace and tranquillity. Her unabashed laughter poses the question: who are we choosing to listen to?
Inspired by the ancient Japanese proverb of the Three Wise Monkeys, this series is a modern-day interpretation of the iconic pictorial maxim that has been subject to extensive philosophical and political commentary. Building on a previous series of artworks titled, The Three Wise Women, these paintings update the proverb to suit the existing in this fast-paced world:
Think no evil. Do no evil. Admit no evil. Post no evil.
Each artwork features a wise woman as an allegorical representation of each tenant of the updated proverb. The front-view portraits of the women are meant to evoke a sense of philosophical curiosity within the viewers, making them question the intentionality and virtues by that they choose to live their lives by. Framed in dramatic poses, these wise women may amuse you with their coy expressions and vibrantly painted hands, but underneath their monochromatic beauty lies an invitation to explore the vivid spectrum of our morality and actions.
