Re: An Art Thief Wins Scholastic Art Contest!? Blasphemy!
Abazaba, the girl copied the poem word for word, And used a highly similar character, in an identical pose. Thats a bit different from two commedians independantly coming up with the same general bit at times close to each other.
She flatly copied someone elses work, and took credit, without even seriously attempting an alternate visual interpretation. Another visual interpretation could have lended a different light to the poem. And creditting the poet would have gone a long way in gaining respectability.
What she did was not dumb but very dishonest
