Spoiler:It's basically the exact same construction as in Mulholland Drive. Someone makes something he can't accept (killing his wife), and reinvents himself (as the young boy) who is this time not the torturer, but the victim. And, as a bonus, he reinvents his victim, who becomes his torturer.
All the weird characters are product of his schizophrenic mind, and things like the picture with the two women are hints to himself from his conscience that what he sees is a lie.
There are other things like the color (Lynch's red = evil), etc...
The explanation I got was during an party, so I can't say I remember more than this, but there was more, and it was damn interesting. Not that I hadn't loved Lost Highway even when I didn't understand it, because unlike Once a Villain said, I've always found that Lynch knows exactly what his movies mean.
