LOVE FLOATS
4th Place Winner, Expressionism, Human Figure in 2025
This painting portrays a woman suspended in a moment of surrender, floating gracefully as colourful drips fall from her body. The vibrant drips symbolize the weight of struggles she’s released and the raw emotions that linger—hope, longing, and the yearning to open herself to love once again.
The textured layers within the piece reflect her journey, revealing the pain she’s overcome and the beauty she’s found along the way. Her floating posture suggests a delicate balance between vulnerability and strength, as she lets go of the past and reaches for the possibility of love.
“Love Floats” is a powerful expression of resilience, transformation, and the quiet bravery it takes to let love in after hardship. It’s a tribute to the beauty of healing and the enduring hope that love can elevate and renew us.
