Response to Gottfried Helnwein

The image is a close up of a face. One eye is visible, a nose, and the tip of the lips. The face has a startled almost scared look, and that will play into the meaning of the image. There is a small man with a rope that appears to be climbing up the face. The photographer obviously photoshopped the image, but it is an artistic image. The meaning of this image is that the people who try to climb all over us are truly nothing. They shouldn't be considered a big deal, they are small meaningless people who do not deserve to be bothered by you. The image says to me that I should ignore the people who climb (walk) all over me and think of them as small unimportant people. The face almost looks terrified or scared and this is because a man is climbing (walking) all over her. This image should encourage people to stop letting people take advantage of them. The scale of the man to the face adds to my interpretation that people who are rude, mean, and walk all over people shouldn't be thought of as huge powerful people. We all have power over them and this image shows me that.
