Artist's Comments
This was my final piece for my project on; Art in boxes- a contempory issue.
I chose eating disorders because it is a subject close to my heart, and wanted to show how the media influences many men and women. The 'vomit' is multicoloured, with the butterflies and flowers to show how the media portrays anorexia and bulimia as glamourous.
The face is made out of modrock, which took me an hour or so to make, another hour to paint and stick on the eyelashes & cut a wig up and get that on too.
The inside of the box i painted black, and around the box there are diary entries of eatinbg disorded girls, lots of magazine cuttings, internet found images, and drawings of my own.
To make the vomit i made strips of ribbon from multicoloured material and threaded it through chicken wire.
The diet pills are fake, made from model-magic, and handpainted.
All in all it took me about 10 hours...the thing is huge.
This is awesome, I love the way you made the topic your own and made it original, there's a girl in my art class doing a her painting topic on obesity and anorexia and she's done it very 'simply'. I definatly prefer this. =]

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
