Critique: In this picture there is a supersized girl bending down opening a very tiny, small door. Inside that little door there is a desert landscape with skeletons standing on the desert. The background for this image is a brick wall and through that brick wall you can see an ocean. On the top left corner of the brick wall there is a window and inside that window you can see and ocean with skeletons in the ocean. Blood is also coming out of the window. The emphasis for this picture is the big girl standing in the middle of the whole picture. It stands out because of the big, supersized girl. The compositional trick that is used is rule of thirds because of where the window is placed, on the top left corner. I think the artists’ interpretation for this surrealism is that skeleton can symbolize many things although people might think it symbolizes death or such thing. For the artist, it might mean the problems in life. My overall view of this picture is that the artist did a good job on the objects used. On the other hand, the artist needs to work more on interpreting what she is trying to express. Maybe use more objects or something like that.
