With a focus on medieval Italian literature, AD VITAM ÆTERNAM (latin: forever, for eternity, for life) is an interpretation of the seven deadly sins in Roman Catholicism. It is a critique of the Catholic church through clothing, and protesting the abuse of power from men of the cloth. Taking elements from the two medieval novels, The Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio, and The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri, mankind will always be envious, wrathful, lustful, greedy, prideful. These traits will never go away and it makes us human.
