The idea was to use the dark fence for getting the background as a "puzzle" consisting of the pieces that seems to fit, but of which nobody can really say if they belong adjucent to each other or not. Perhaps some more pieces can be put in the gaps and complete the puzzle too. The known pieces remain there and apply necessary but not also necessarily also sufficient conditions for what might be in the gaps. And this, together with the impossibility of proving something using "examples", is the very root of the tree of science. Science doesn't work, as many think, by finding the true but rather by excluding the false. Ot is exactly *this* that throws the constructs of fantasts into the garbage can: The necessary conditions that *exclude* what is impossible - i.e. what cannot be brough into logical agreement with the already known tiles.
On the image now, I don't know in what extend it gives the impression of a "tiled map". I think it could have been more unambiguous in this, and thus I'd be very glad for any help.
Thanks a lot for the fruitful idea, Fabio! trying to follow your idea I copied/pasted the fence into the image, and it really seems to evolve to what I was thinking of! (Attachment)
Good luck with your experiments, and I am doing mine too!
Cheers!

Paisted the dark fence onto the image after Fabio's suggestion
the idea is very fine and highly expandable... but what went wrong (imho) is the size of the fence/grid (not your fault, of course)... with a grid with much smaller rectangles you may produce far better the wanted effect (and autumn light shadow play included, some stunning semi abstract compositions may be produced... the other difficult (flawed) item may be the background... either it should be more uniform (gravel, stone, or leaves on the ground) or - to the contrary - more vivid (playing children, passengers, e.g.) nevermind, I'll steal your idea fo experimenting!:))
