Gottfried Helnwein image cont. 2

The change in viewpoint didn't really effect my interpretation because I thought it was a billboard the whole time. What did change a little was that I thought the girl was sad and getting hurt but it no longer looks like that with the whole picture. You can definitely see that this is made up of smaller pieces. When you look closely you can see every detail in the little girls face and hair.You can see the cracking in her lips, the makeup in the creases of her eyes, her imperfect eyebrows, etc. This billboard seems to be in a industrial area where the audience is most likely women passing by. Women tend to have a sweet-spot for children and it will always catch their eyes. The mood of the image is kind of sad or calm. Her expression is more unphased and hopeless. I think the title may mean she is either the last billboard girl or the last girl getting hurt or some sort of campaign. Like a strike saying she is the last of whatever happened to her.
