Hmmm. They do sort of have a coffin shape... but the fact that they are standing in a field pretty much lets me know what they are. Now, if there were skeletal hands reaching out of them, that would be different.
Face it, there is always some wacko who says something bizarre about *anyone's* artwork. Usually it's me, at least with non-representational art. In small towns, it's hard to find appreciation for anything that isn't whatever is common to the area- here it's western art with cowboys etc or wolves; where you are I'm sure there is something 'local'. Don't take it personal; your art is great. I LOVE the bag you sent me!
My fav wacko was the one who *inhaled* an entire bowl of yoghurt raisins! This was an older man and his wife and their middle-aged daughter and it was very clear that the mother and daughter were the ones interested in looking at art. The daughter pointed at the bowl and said something to the effect of "hey here's your favorite snack at least!" 20 seconds later they were gone!
Then there was the dressed-up couple who came into the Minigalleri (the art gallery part of the Alternativ Boden), looked over at the shop area and gasped "They sell ecological food here!" and RAN out the door!!! I can only assume that they thought hippies would rappel from the ceiling and attempt to force-feed them granola.
Oh, dear! Ecological food! The horror! I must say, I do love the image of hippies rappelling from the ceiling, maybe with high powered granola guns for the force feeding.
