Inner Demon Contest entry

this is my entry for the OOAKDOLLART.com inner demon contest

i choose my pain because it is what defeats me most days, i suffer from fribromyalgia and the strings represent the control of the pain that it has over me. it resides mainly in my upper back, shoulders and arms. i do feel like a puppet being played with because there are so many things i would like to do but have this constant deep burning throbbing pain that tells me "NO, YOU HAVE NO CONTROL"
it is sculpted in black & white and some red to represent what i feel like when i have a episode of it (almost daily)
for the black & white there is no in between, it's either i feel great or i dont, never a so-so
and red for the firey pain that is controlling me. i give in too often to it and give up.
