Tried to do a different approach than just dividing a photo in rectangles....

the full title should have been: 'Extraterrestrial homesick blues', but the site won't let me enter that as title.

I am not quite satisfied with the results, so suggestions are welcome. (5 years and 3527 days ago)

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.

author says:

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.
