Greetings from the Critique Club

This is a wonderfully evocative image - it gets a visceral reaction from most people because of the sense of empathy about the spines. I like the subdued lighting and use of negative space. I might like just a bit more sharpness to the spines.

The pose is interesting, I'm just curious if you tried other angles going up or down the back utilizing forced perspective.

As for the challenge topic, it didn't feel particularly surreal to me, but maybe that's because I've seen folks who implant strange stuff in their body. It just seemed on the fringe. But the commentary it makes on the body has an absurdist feel to it by taking something to an extreme.

I'd love to see more comments by you about the creation of your submission.

Congrats on your top ten finish.
