Concept
The Seven Heavenly Sins
The concept for the image of ITS#SEVEN is “The 7 heavenly sins”. The focus is on the contrast between “heavenly” and “sins”. Why do we accept sins and virtues as a given? Are all sins wrong and are all virtues right? In this context we have created the 7 heavenly sins, that represent what it takes to be a real talent.
