More TVs


I thought it was interesting that Mike DiMotta used televisions in his image for "The Seven Deadly Sins" of "Sloth".
Letting the real world fall apart around you while lost in the artificial reality of television suggests the way TV promotes inertia.
Though he uses a cartoon style, his command of space lets him pack a tremendous amount of information in a small space, and emphasizes the uniformity created by everyone having the same sensory experiences.

The original image is mainly blues. I don't know how it changed into the colors here, but you can still appreciate the content
