This project captures very well how Dovewing was expected to fullfill the important role of being a prophecy cat and how this pressure affected her personally. Her not feeling like she ever truly fit in with ThunderClan and eventually joining ShadowClan to be with Tigerstar and her kits still makes me quite sad since I had hopes she might yet find happiness in her birth-Clan but here we are. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad she's happy now and it's moreso other factors concerning her relationships with different cats which made me wish for another outcome though.
Here's part of the description which explains the symbolism in this video:
Here's part of the description which explains the symbolism in this video:
Conceptually, Dovewing has always been a fascinating character to me. Told about her part in a prophecy at an early age, she was distanced from her Clanmates, feeling like she never quite fit in. Throughout her life, she struggles to live up to the expectations placed upon her by both herself and the cats around her. This MAP seeks to explore her attempts to live up to those expectationsโup until she canโt take it anymore.
These expectations are symbolized by golden, oozing nectar. As she struggles to focus on the cats around her after returning from her journey, nectar gets caught on her paws, symbolizing how she canโt seem to escape her feelings of inadequacy. Eventually, she manages to drag herself out of the expectations placed upon her.
