Description:
Wealth affects our consumer habits and can result in waste and feelings of failure. What we value as a symbol of wealth today may be discarded as trash tomorrow.
The gold pans and stamp machine are empty, discarded, rusty, practically forgotten and no longer fulfilling the purpose they were designed for. The bowls, symbols of gold seekers, greed and hunger are empty and the trappings of a past communication method have become a technological waste product of our creativity and consumer habits.
I thought of Dickens� Oliver, who was hungry because of the culture and greed of those in more powerful positions and thought that the things we value and attach wealth significance to can be as temporary as a ribbon blowing in the wind and whether hungry or not we may still want more, more, more. Like rusty vessels we can fail to make the most of our resources, we can fail to see the real worth of what we value and end up being or feeling unwanted and as useless as the things we valued.
