Greed
This image represents the sin ‘Greed’.
The sin ‘Greed’ has been described as an excessive or rapacious desire and pursuit of wealth, status and power.
This image has been compiled of a number of images all relating to the most obvious physical connection to the idea of greed... gold. There are images of gold rings, gold jewellery and eve a gold gift wrap bow, all combined and imposed onto a portrait in such a way that it looks like the gold is literally consuming her, thus conveying my ideas that in modern life we become so wrapped up in the pursuit of a vast monetary income that we sometimes become blind to its power and hold over us and very often become suffocated by it.
