A Sweet Bird: About

Writing A Sweet Bird, I wanted to utilise traditional symbols of purity and craftiness but create an allusion in the sense that the characters of choice represent for much more than simple animals. I meant for the sweet bird to represent the feminine form; a delicate, innocent, pure human being, who is so sweet that this perhaps may be her downfall, as she is left vulnerable to the diseased characters of others. The fox represents a masculine form, a character that a fox has forever been a symbol of; I wanted this character to illustrate that a drive to succeed in nature is unreachable without destroying the life of others, and this is existent between human beings, and can be transferred across to illustrate the dangers of love.
