"The Last Girl" Part2 Response

    The image is a close-up of a little girl. It is very large and detailed allowing for every detail to be seen. She can't be any older than 8. She has blueish green eyes, an auburn eye shadow around her eyes, very fair skin, light brown wavy hair, and chapped lips. The size obviously draws attention to the image. The girl seems unhappy. An unhappy child is not a happy sight so it causes someone to question what is wrong. Since the matter is not elaborated on further than the title "The Last Girl" it is up to the audience to determine the meaning/circumstance. The image appears to be multiple panels of cloth material secured together. The image is in an urban industrial area near some sort of port so people on boat or possibly car passing by would see it while casually going along with their day. The fade colors (unpigmented) as well as the emotionless expression of the girl easily catches one off-guard. I think the title suggests a young girl having to grow up too quickly and while doing so try to fit the steriotype of the pressures of being a young women, hints the heavy makeup.
