nice job author!

I like the colors ,very nice

beautiful

It reminds me on kindergarten,teachers gives us papers similar to this to draw with pastels...

Great job... congratulations... I liked the colors, too...

>?????

listen to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3ZaihhspoM that is my main inspiration
idk how to explain it
just listen to the song + watch the entry....u maybe find out the answer
hopefully u guys enjoy that

clever.. but it feels more like spatial repetition then Cubism (the main subject would be dissected) but I will give you credit for invention.. good luck author... nice image...

A total desintegration! Very creative.

I don't see Cubism here, just repetition of forms.

Cubism. N:

A nonobjective school of painting and sculpture developed in Paris in the early 20th century, characterized by the reduction and fragmentation of natural forms into abstract, often geometric structures usually rendered as a set of discrete planes.

reduced to three elements.. the arm.. the face ... and the other hand... Geometric form of a rectangle of frame.. triangle arm.. rectangle head progression..

Three layer planes.. the background the frame the arm.. frontal head lobe

Fragmentation of natural forms into the abstract.. (not limited to geometric structures)

Did a 20 page thesis on Cubism in college.. got an A+ and also tutored others on the subject

It's amazing what you can learn when you are taught by a professor that really understands art

Where's the reduction and fragmentation of natural forms into abstract, often geometric structures?

Triangle around the arm in motion (Marcel Duchamp..Nude Descending stairs).. (abstract NOT non Representational)

Fragmentation of the playing finger into a half DNA Helix (another geometric structure)

The linking of the arms into the shape of a rectangular frame..fist over elbow

The repetition of the watch into a pendulum arc...(Arcs are actually geometric structures in their own right but the watch is ROUND.. thus another geometric form borrowed from the source picture)

(psst.. cubism, like a cube is trying to show other aspects of an image on different planes only on a FLAT SURFACE) I chose to show the FLESH, TIME, and MUSIC of the image I chose.. using a bumpy surface to display it on...

"The creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings
the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting
its inner qualifications and thus adds his contribution to the creative act."
(Marcel Duchamp)

awesome!

It's quite different of the others; I know Cubism had many phases, including collage of materials like newspaper, glass, cloth, wood... Nice work, author. GL...

different approach author...gl

great ! i like it . g l

Nice, it's quite different. I like the background, it shows how you can be among a crowd and feel alone...

Like the concept. The not-so-cubist extraterrestrial is not at all that clear without looking at the SBS. Cubism is largely suggestive in any event, so the alien needs to be much stronger IMO and readily identifiable as such as it's deconstructed. The guitar is merely split apart while I think of cubism as partial duplicates overlapping at differing angles.

Dan, Thanks for your comments. You are right in that the alien should have been stronger and more clearly deconstructed. I tried a more analytical approach, rather than just random overlapping rectangles. I think, that is what the early cubists tried to accomplish: showing more aspects of the same subject in a single image.

very cool!
