I like the lighting of the face and creepy disembodied feeling. 8

I'm sure you're trying to say something by having the shot oriented in this way. However; when I turn my head 90 degrees to the right, I see a much more powerfull composition. Call me traditional...

Very sharp image. I love the high-contrast. I'm interested in knowing what your lighting setup was for this shot.

I like the simplicity and starkness of this a lot -- while thinking the whole time that I'm missing the 'message' of the Symbolism the title alludes to. Nonetheless, I keep looking at it and finding the isolated and apparently disembodied head and hand most fascinating. Well done!

Ahhh.... his head's not attached to his body!!! j/k
I love the placement of the head and hand. What really makes it work is that they are perpendicular to each other.
