- Title: "The Golden Cage"-Please Read
- Artist: Ragdoll Complex

Description:
Inspired by 'The Golden Cage: The Enigma of Anorexia Nervosa':
"An image came to her, that she was like a sparrow in a golden cage. She enlarged on the image, that cages are made for big colorful birds who show off their plumage [...] She felt she was quite different, like a sparrow, inconspicuous and energetic, who wants to fly around and take off on its own, who is not made for a cage."
Keep comments civil-this is a political topic. Judge on the execution of a concept, not worth in gold. - Date: 11/08/2009

@Refugee: It's not really a character, or I'd put it in the Cosplay arena. >>
It's more a virtualization of what many people experience when afflicted with an eating disorder. (Not the only feeling one might have, though.) It just happened to be summed up very well in that excerpt from the book.
@Dreams: That's why it took me so long to build up the nerve to submit this idea. neutral - Report As Spam

Thank you to everyone who has commented! There's too many to reply individually, so in general... I'm not really looking to win. I entered knowing pretty well the chances of me getting higher than 3/5 stars, yet alone placing, were slim. The arenas are very glitzy, as has been stated. smile
I'm pleased it's left an impression, though. I wanted to say something with this entry, and it means a lot to see I've done that. Thank you all! - Report As Spam

- It's great and all but without reading the book it just looks like a dude in a cage, but too many times gold has won the arena and it's creative to make an avi from a book (Other than the gay a** book known as TWILIGHT!) so 5/5 hope you make it!
