This painting explores the feeling of floating rather than falling in love. It also evokes a positive interpretation of Ophelia, the Shakespearean heroines from Hamlet.

“Ophelia’s drowning is the consummate representation of an eternal retreat into the feminine, trading an individual voice for eternal silence in union with feminine essence. In turn, her death expresses the danger of reducing an individual to his or her gender and disregarding the voice of the marginalized. The silencing of Ophelia has surpassed her textual death given the amount of critics that see her as flat, under developed, and used only for emotional upheaval.” Rosalyn Stilling. Drowning in Womanhood: Ophelia’s Death as Submission to the Feminine Element.
