THE STORY OF ARTIST:
GUY GEVA
"This project is based on Dante's three historical books. (The first is hell.) Dante's hell concentrates on the seven sins on which we are going to suffer in hell: Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, and Pride. In this series of works (Hell.) I have chosen not to present sins as they are. For example, I did not find it necessary to take sexual pictures as a way of presenting the sin of Lust. I see no reason and logic to describe things as they are. But to show how sin affects us and way we are sent to hell according to Dante. How human conditioning causes us to do the sins of man who send us to hell. As in the picture of the wires that describe how greed blinded our eyes and makes it difficult to distinguish between need and desire. In Buddhism, the desire to hold objects causes us to suffer because we cannot hold everything and at the same time the desire for more and more causes us to live constantly with a sense of dissatisfaction. The rope tightly wrapped around the body that describes the sin of Lust in which we hold the body forcefully. The desire to knead the flash under our hands, to feel it."
