Ophelia Reconsiders...The sad ending to Ophelia's story has been depicted by many artists. Here she chooses a different ending for herself. She chooses to continue her story which is sometimes the bravest choice of all. The Blue Lotus symbolizes the human spirit. Our ability to rise above and bloom even in the murkiest water. The work has a myriad of spiritual symbols that draw from cultures around the world.
Ophelia Reconsiders is constructed from layers of kiln formed glass and pulled hot worked glass.
The back of the work is mirrored and reflects glimpses of your face in the water as you contemplate your own spiritual journey.
