I'm all for experimenting, but this photo seems to be submitted solely for shock value. For a portrait it seems a bit too soft. Perhaps if the same subject was used but under dufferent lighting and perspective this may have worked better.

Great to see an alternate approach to the challenge. May not appeal to all, but definitely does to me ;)
