In November 2023, the Chinese artist and engineer Xin Liu exhibited 'Lycorises Reverie', her collaboration with the artist and scientist Nan Zhao, at FLANNELS X in London.
I was commissioned to document the piece for Liu's archive, and for publication on artnet.com
“Lycorises Reverie” is an immersive encounter with the imaginary world of the lycorises. Digitally born yet biologically evolved, Lycorises is a series of generative artworks, combining the visual language of microscopic organisms and flowers, the Lycorises represent the intricacies of life and how it constantly evolves. Through the use of generative algorithms, the artworks are able to create new, unique floral-like forms constantly.
