Yeah maybe idk. I like the dreamlike quality of it.

Understandable. Not knocking it down. I wonder if the pallid, closed-eye look was intentional, tho

That was weirdly worded. What I mean is: was the ambiguity intentional or did the artist have a clear vision: Is she asleep, or is she dead?

(And maybe that's part of what makes it an interesting work of art)
