Inspired by water lilies, this work reflects on the unseen effort behind growth
and achievement. While only the floating leaves are visible on the surface,
an extensive network of roots and stems lies beneath the water, reaching
towards light. The golden forms celebrate the value of this hidden journey,
while the mirrored composition echoes the relationship between what is seen
and what remains unseen.
