My goodness there is a lot going on here! I'll do my best to critique this beautiful piece!
First of all, I would like to say that this is a very modernistic work of art. You have utilized materials in a way that really speaks out to the viewer and really gets the point across. It really gets the viewer thinking about the things they see in the world nowadays like advertising, society, people, and nature. It's so much to take in at once that it gives one's brains almost a sensory overload in some cases and you address this clearly with your manipulation of the colors and subjects. The more I look at this piece, the more I find, which is one of the reasons why I really love this piece.
Secondly, the only negative I see in this is the wording toward the bottom left where it says, "The wight of vision compels you." It needs to be a bit more clear and legible, but that's my opinion. The obvious goal here is to get the viewer to read your message and get them thinking about what's really going on here.
Once again, great work and great job on photographing this!

No problem! Artists need help and asking for a critique is one way to ask for anything needing to be improved upon.Β
