Greetings from the Critique Club.

This is a creative idea. The model's expression is good, and using a single light source was, I think, the right choice for this. But the light background ruins the low key effect. The knife lacks detail; it's just a bright shape with no form or texture. I also think a vertical format would have been more appropriate for the subject. The face is somewhat blurry, and that's an interesting choice. I suspect having a sharply focused face with a little more contrast would have worked better, but it's really hard to say; it would make the photo more attractive, but that's not the goal here.

The chair is really disturbing.

This photo leads me to believe some serious photographic training is needed along with some sociopathic/anger management treatment. Because young children are members at this site I would expect a more mature imaginative entry. Perhaps browse the archive and see just what form/style of photography wins ribbons.

Hmm... what is that chair doing there? Too dark, needs more contrast.

Interesting concept but I fail to see the value of the chair in the picture.
