*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
First impressions, a confusing image that I don't think meets the challenge
Whilst this challenge is in itself quite challenging having read the brief I cannot see how your entry meets the challenge unless I am missing something too subtle for me, the only possibility I can conjure up is outside the (coffin) box? Your title is not helping me at all, I just don't understand it at all.
The lettering has worn and it looks as though you have started to highlight the lettering by placing the fallen debris in the grooves of the lettering and given up. If this is not the case it is somewhat uncanny how the debris has ended up in the lettering for Ben and the start of his surname and then appears to be more random as you would expect.
The grass at the top centre of the image dominates and would have been better excluded. I'm not sure there is much else I can constructively add, sorry, Sid |
