Kuanyin and Pigsy‘s moment of reflection on cardinal sins. A depiction of the complexities and depths of emotion (guilt, shame, disgust, dread, contempt and acceptance) found in an act of reconciliation and forgiveness not typically dwell upon and elaborated in traditional interpretation of pigsy transformation. Figurative/cultural symbolism is reimagined as abstractions (white circle on Kuanyin forehead in place of the imagery of Amitabha and red circle beneath Pigsy instead of visual reenactment of his indulgence on earthly pleasures) as a demonstration of a progressively homogenized approach in the visual representations of meaning in our day and age.
