Solo Show
The Seven (Not so) Deadly Sins
Leesa Gray-Pitt

Can these sins really be so deadly? I think not! The concept for these artworks and exhibition was to take another look at these so called deadly sins from a new perspective. Lust, Pride, Gluttony, Sloth, Wrath, Envy and Greed can all be amazing traits that feel wonderful without hurting anyone else. The Pride movement for the LGBTQI community is one of empowerment.

What’s so wrong with being a Sloth for a day or two (or more) lazing in bed recharging the batteries? And Envy - I’m envious of people who have never known the heartache of losing a child! I would never want them to know that despair but it doesn’t stop me from wanting to see my daughter get married and have children just like theirs. I know only too well how short this life can be so as long as we aren’t hurting anyone lets embrace these so called sins and make them very enjoyable vices!!
