gottfried helnwein p.2

in the third enlarged image taken by gottfried helnwein, i see a young girl plastered on a billboard. however in the zoomed picture i originally thought she was a grown woman. she has blonde hair. blue eyes,  and a sullen expression. the size of the image effects the overall meaning of the image because it looks like the man is photoshopped when in reality he's climbing the board. the piece is titled "the last girl" which could sound menacing or sweet, depending on hoe you listen to it.
the location seems industrial and looks like the wall of a factory. maybe the people walking down that alleyway will see the image and appreciate it. i feel like the intended audience is whoever wants to see it.

in my mind, the image conveys a strong sense of mystery. is the image photoshopped? or is it just made to look like it? in the photo i think a man is photoshopped onto the woman's face, using a strand of her hair as a tether to climb up her face. Or possibly a man climbing up a billboard or poster of some sort. i think the photographer's intent was to take a shot of an artistic piece and leave the interpretation to the reader.
