The cross at the back of Greed references the relationship between Christianity and the seven deadly sins. 4th century Christian monk Evagruis Ponticus’ list of deadly sins was revised in AD 590 by Pope Gregory 1. Postules on the lower hemisphere of Greed’s body hint at the potential effects of corruption through greed. Greed’s legs mine the base (earth) and extract items (series of drawn squares) which enter the body and exit as if being pushed through the body via peristalsis. Decals of treasures hang on a belt around his large, inflated belly. The base and upper body hemisphere have a series of graph like forms in relief indicating the monitoring of potential investment and gain over time.
