''The Divine Kiss — The Evil is Always and Everywhere'' is an opera by the Australian composer Constantine Koukias that explores the imagery of the seven saving virtues: prudence, justice, fortitude, temperance, faith, hope and charity. ==Showcasing talents of performers with disabilities== Commissioned by Access Arts Queensland and the 1998 Brisbane Festival, ''The Divine Kiss'' showcased the talents of performers with disabilities such as blindness and cerebral palsy. Singer in the 1999 IHOS Music Theatre and Opera production in Hobart, Janelle Colquhoun, said it was the most accommodating opera she had worked on since becoming blind.〔Colquhoun, Janelle, in Barbeliuk, Anne 1999, "Opera questions traditional concepts", the ''Mercury'', 7 September 1999, p. 7〕 The title plays on the way disability is perceived in different cultures. According to the composer, in some cultures people with disabilities are revered as having been kissed by God, while in others their difference is perceived as bringing God’s curse on society. “At any time, it is perception alone that creates reality and defines optimism or pessimism,” says Koukias〔Koukias, Constantine, in Wood, Danielle, "Discerning what a kiss might mean”, the ''Mercury'', 19 June 1998, p. 30〕
