In this section, we want to show the commercial cycle of flowers: being picked, labeled, compared, sold, and finally thrown away. Through this process, we explore how nature is gazed at and objectified. We also use AI-generated visuals in this part to raise a key question: how does technology continue the objectification of nature and women? Here, flowers also function as a metaphor for women.
Dream of the Red Chamber is one of the most important works of classical Chinese literature. It portrays a group of talented women whose lives are marked by hardship and tragedy. One of the central characters is Lin Daiyu.
In the novel, there is a famous scene known as “Daiyu Burying Flowers.” One day, Lin Daiyu sees fallen flowers scattered on the ground. Worried that they will be trampled and spoiled, she gently gathers them and buries them in the soil. To her, the flowers are more than part of nature—they symbolize the fate of women: beautiful and delicate, yet unable to control their own destiny.
This work is inspired by the scene of "burying flowers." Here, flowers symbolize both nature and women.
