The Seven Deadly Sins Of Modern Times
''The Seven Deadly Sins of Modern Times'' (1993) is an acrylic painting on a wooden table by the contemporary Australian artist Susan Dorothea White, where she proposes that today's deadly sins are the opposite of the original ones. Inspired by the composition and design of ''The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things'' by Hieronymus Bosch, White has described her depiction of the inverses; for example, gluttony is supplanted by "dieting", and " sucking up" stands in for envy. In the depiction of each of these deadly sins is an animal or plant which has been introduced to Australia to ill effect, as the cockroach represents squandering and a feral water buffalo demonstrates indifference. Instead of the eye of God which Bosch placed in the center of his design, White has incorporated an enlargement of the iris of her pet cat, which represents Gaia In Greek mythology, Gaia (; from Ancient Greek , a poetical form of , 'land' or 'earth'),, , . also spelled Gaea , is ...
