I like the map and the muted colours, but am struggling a little bit to understand the concept. Also what's going on with the smaller rectangle at the bottom?

I really like this design, but the title does leave me very intrigued for more info....

It's a bit tough for me to make out what's going on, but I think it is obvious that you're looking at elements from a map. I understand that it's meant to be abstract (or at least I believe it is), but I think the overall design needs some tightening up. The muted colors definitely set the mood though.

This piece was somewhat inspired by my love of map design and diagrams that show attack structures, but also by concepts described in Rammellzee's 1979 "Treatise on Gothic Futurism" where he describes the inherent weapon like and military properties of letterforms and wild styles.

Sorry for the pixelation.

This is a nice abstract design

if that pixelation is not intentional, makes it a little hard to offer an opinion i think... too bad cause it looks like it would be pretty cool.

A design perspective that I haven't seen on this site yet. Cartography can be a beautiful subject in art. Maybe a second pass could do this design a little justice.

I agree with dumar. I want to love this one more than I do because it's such a clever concept. Just feels fuzzy on the execution

Pixelation is off-putting. Concept is sound.

I really want to understand this, but no matter how much I squint my eyes, I just don't see anything
