I edited the original version of "Look Mickey" by Roy Lichtenstein to fit the theme of the "vaporwave" art style.
Creativity - The concept is very creative. Vaporwave normally uses realistic background or elements but the idea to instead incorporate pop art into the piece was unique.
Execution - The colors match vaporwave very well. The sculpture also fits the theme, but I would suggest not centering it. Normally, vaporwave is symmetrical. Even when it's not, the main object is usually not designated as the center of attention. Also, the background is very grainy, so that could be touched up. But overall, it is A ES T H E T I C.
Context - Looks to be well researched. It seems you have a good understanding of what the different art forms are about.
Documentation - Well documented; acknowledges the obstacles in making the piece while giving good information about the process.
I found that your execution of what you were going for was very successful. It was a very creative reproduction overall. I enjoyed the fact that you used the same bust that was used in what was considered one of the earliest examples of vaporwave, the album Floral Shoppe. I do not know whether you did that purposely or not, but it was intriguing nevertheless. If I had to give any negative criticism, it would be the fact that the main image was centered in the painting, just like Frank said in the comment above me. However, it still was an excellent reproduction overall.
An interesting compilation of ideas. Successful final product. I would have liked a little more research about all of the styles you were combining. Overall, a well-informed piece.
