Ophelia art.

Ophelia is my favourite character from shakespeare. There are many paintings about Ophelia, and they are very inspiring. So I wanted to give my own version of this beautiful woman, in the guise of a doll.
I have taken the most beutiful doll I could find, and I put a lot of leaves around her body, she is a naked Ophelia, and she is sitting close to the famuos pond, but we do not see it, we only imagine it is there. Ophelia has very long hair that are the symbol on nature and of life, and yet she goes through the Nigredo phase, of mourning and sorrow, and she can’t come back alive, maybe because water was so close to her, like in the Narciso myth, it was too close…
