Floriography
Floral imagery is more than decorative art and a symbol of femininity. For example, in East Asian culture, some flowers are regarded as powerful and noble rather than fragile or delicate. The meanings of flowers go beyond the field of botany and become rich cultural semiotics and spiritual ballast. Looking at flowers through the lens of Sinitic literature, performing arts, and my own horticulture experience, I try to express the floral motif beyond face value.
