Samsara

"Samsara" refers to the belief that all living beings cyclically go through births and rebirths. Coming from the murkiest water but growing into the purest thing, the lotus flower is an important symbol of the natural order in the culture of Buddhism. It is known as the Flower of Life and is considered one of the most sacred plants in the world, which has hands down one of the most fascinating life cycles.

In the various life forms of Seed-Bud-Flower-Seedpod-Seed of the lotus plant, each form's fading away is for the chance of the next one. Aging and death is inevitable, cherish whatever the season brings us, remember the time of blooming and wilting, we comprise and anticipate new hopes and surprises in our lives.

This collection is about women and nature, now and then, life and death. The fresh leaf, the falling flower and the young seedpod representing the days past, while the empty seedpod and the dry leaf is what remained now.
