It's a photo with a particular kind of space and feel: textural/
graphic in its composition, contrasting familiar animate human form
against inanimate forms in a particular way. The question comes down
to "What are you trying to say with it?" Alone it is curious and
invites interpretation. "Like works" would help refine and articulate
the intent.

An interesting composition. I don't think it works quite so well in a
standalone photo, but would work better as part of a project
presentation of like works.
