THE CURSE OF BEING DIFFERENT

Description

This work was inspired by a beautiful greek song..
It's called "The mirror" [link]

The translation of a part of its lyrics:
One day a wounded angel came to the village,
Carried there locked in a cage.
And the wild crowds bought tickets
To glimpse his beauty.

And a child as beautiful as a tear, a cherub,
A child,
Asked him to sing a song,
And he said:

He said: "If you wish to be saved from your beauty,
Take an axe and a sword and sever your wings."
He said: "Never look at others in the eye
Because you'll turn into a mirror and they'll shatter you."
