Voted earlier coming back to comment.

Yes, greed can indeed be horrific - but it is the effect of what it does to others, the wake of destruction left behind by those who have money and use it destructively that is what is most horrible. The story of Midas for example- one feels more sorry for those who he 'hurt' (turning his daughter to gold for example) rather than Midas himself. The individual can be misguided by greed - but I feel the true horror lies more in the damage an individual with money and power can do to the community at large. While this piece is top notch work, I feel that this piece is a bit 'incomplete'. You have effectively captured the individual who covets money but I feel it is lacking the other half of what makes greed so horrible - a visual showing the greedy individual willing to step on and push whomever and whatever gets in their way would have made this a 'complete picture'. It is the damage to people and the environment that a greedy individual can and does leave in their wake that shows the horror of what man can do.

Wonderful idea and beautifully (or should i say horribly) executed. Curious to see how you did the money.
