Seven Deadly Sins

As a mother I work hard to balance an awareness of the troubled world we live in with the beauty and wonder that is also around us. I believe it is important for my daughters to learn the values and virtues of kindness and generosity for example by knowing the consequences of selfishness and greed. In this juxtaposition of ideas that inspired this series of seven one of a kind tin types showing the Seven Deadly Sins. Photographed with a wet plate collodion process that I feel illustrated the magical innocence of youth alongside the darker recesses of human nature.
