One of my recurring images is the Three Wise Monkeys. The three monkeys are depicted as "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil." A bit of an insider about it...
This unique digital image, measuring 20x25 inches and 300dpi printable, represents it all in one abstract way.
In English, it's a bit different: "No See Evil, No Hear Evil, No Speak Evil." It carries a slightly different interpretation than what you might have known about it; that's why I paint it.
See No Evil: The first monkey represents the principle of not seeing evil. It suggests that we should not turn a blind eye to wrongdoing, not commit or approve of it.
Hear No Evil: The second monkey symbolizes not hearing evil. It implies that we should not listen to bad news or pay attention to malicious words.
Speak No Evil: The third monkey symbolizes the principle of not speaking evil. Following this principle, one should not spread bad news or speak ill of others.
These three wise monkeys symbolize ethical behaviour and good morals in Japanese culture. The expression "Three Wise Monkeys" has a cultural significance that extends worldwide, often used to express a commitment to moral integrity and good deeds.
