A doll bird?

This is the little doll baby that is being 'birthed' from a gaping hole in a word-covered male torso. Which is wrapped with barbed wire. And the words all over the torso are all about violence, hurt, and anger. The shadowbox is being made so now I must wait and resist the urge to play with what is done.

The doll doesn't have any eyes- instead, she has two words on her eyelids: blind faith What you can't see are the three hands holding the wound open- a doll hand at the end of a gun, a doll hand at the end of an operating instrument, and a doll hand at the end of a snake.

I don't know what this shadowbox is going to be called. It is going to be my submission for the 2009 Juried Show.
