Red Cordyline
This work was inspired by the plant’s natural gesture—its upward sweep felt like a metaphor for energy rising, a quiet yet powerful force pushing towards light. By emphasizing movement over stillness, I wanted to explore how a fixed moment can hold a sense of constant transformation. “Red Cordyline” becomes a celebration of vitality, where color and form respond to one another in a lively visual dialogue.
