Adding to the original proverb of the Three Wise Monkeys, to do no evil is to stop yourself from giving into your ego and unwise impulses which only leads to unhappiness and regret. The ramifications of our actions can be irreversible and this new tenet of the cautionary maxim serves as a warning to be mindful of what we put into motion.
In this portrait, the Wise Woman looks at us with an introspective gaze as her colourful arms protectively wrapped around her. It seems as if her arms are restraining her from doing something that she knows she will regret later on. As we peer into her eyes, we seem to be challenged by her ability to restrain herself and to also confront the base impulses that have been the cause of our past misdeeds. The Wise Woman through her soulful stare asks us: when the time comes, will we be able to hold ourselves back and do the right thing?
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.
