Its black humour.

Its a poke at how asian people dislike being photographed “as they are”. they like to have prepared photographs, they build fake walls on their streets for parade day and so on…

As has been said already – this is Japanese photographer Orimoto – if you google image search him, you’ll see these same three ladies with tyres around their heads in different locations. The one in the middle is apparently his ailing mother and she appears alone in some pics, without the tyre.

I do not believe this is a case of necklacing, but in the unlikely event that it is, it would make for a horrible picture.

Also, yes I see the face. It looks creepy! I wonder what it is.
