Much of my work is inspired by the cell structure of lotus root, which I abstract into what I call "Lotus Mutations." These forms explore the intersections of Asian identity, nodding to the "lotus girl" trope in western media, while acknowledging lotus root as a mundane food item. Here, I use this imagery to envision digital futures where the lotus thrives in a post-human landscape, referencing both ecofuturism and Asian futurism. In this space, the lotus becomes a symbol of resilience and transformation, bridging cultural heritage and speculative futures.
