{"product_id":"see-no-evil","title":"See No Evil","description":"\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe idea of See No Evil comes from the centuries-old proverb most commonly associated with the Three Wise Monkeys, often linked to the carvings at the Tōshō-gū Shrine in 17th-century Japan. Historically, the phrase encouraged moral discipline – urging individuals to turn away from wrongdoing and avoid witnessing or engaging with immoral acts. In its original sense, it promoted personal virtue through restraint, discouraging the acceptance of harmful influences through what we choose to see. This work draws on that original meaning while offering a more contemporary interpretation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor me, See No Evil is less about ignoring the world around us and more about being conscious of where we direct our attention. It is a reflection on the images, messages, and influences we consume every day, and the impact they have on our mindset and beliefs. In a world dominated by screens, media, and constant visual stimulation, the work serves as a reminder to be intentional about what we allow into our field of vision and how those choices ultimately shape the way we experience the world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSee No Evil forms part of a wider series inspired by the enduring proverb of the Three Wise Monkeys. Across all three works, the message remains strikingly relevant today: what we listen to, what we look at, and how we speak all have a direct impact on who we are and what we become. Together, the series explores the relationship between our environment and our identity, encouraging a greater awareness of the influences that shape our everyday lives.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Asa Sheppard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53186974089563,"sku":"NE2\/126","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/0091\/9643\/files\/seenoevilproductimage.png?v=1780144574","url":"https:\/\/voyagesandvanity.com\/products\/see-no-evil","provider":"Voyages \u0026 Vanity","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
