My entry for Flora Museum - Where Art Grows Challenge on Contra! 🌸
I designed a logo where art truly grows - blooming peony emerging from light.

flora - Museum Where Art Grows
Concept: The letter 'f' is deeply rooted, nurturing a new glowing sapling. It shows that in Flora Museum, art doesn't just hang on walls, it grows.

The Lover’s Eye was never just a portrait. It was a portrait of a gaze. The art of looking back.
For the #FLORAMuseumChallenge, I chose the 19th-century Lover’s Eye Bracelet, an intimate object featuring a miniature of a loved one’s eye. Pieces like these were worn close to the body so the wearer could imagine their beloved’s gaze resting upon them 👁️
That idea became my creative starting point: what if the gaze that we see in art could be returned?
So I imagined a woman walking through present-day New York wearing the bracelet. As we get closer to the miniature, we find "Ivy" actually looking out from her own time. The person preserved inside the object is suddenly looking back at us, creating a fleeting exchange between past and present.
The engraved name “Ivy” on the back of the actual bracelet became a small but meaningful detail that helped me imagine the story behind the object.
And so I wanted to create something that felt like a visual poem 💛
A gaze captured centuries ago, finding its way back to another pair of eyes.
wow. Love the idea!!
THE WRONG CAPE
The Wrong Cape reimagines Edouard Manet’s Mademoiselle V. . . in the Costume of an Espada (1862) by building a cinematic world around Victorine Meurent’s pose.
In the original painting, Victorine appears as a male espada, yet her shoes are unsuitable for bullfighting and her pink cape is the “wrong” hue. I treated those contradictions as my creative brief: alternating arena wides, intimate close-ups, shifting expressions, horse details, restrained gestures, and studies of the cape itself.
The film ends by pulling away from Manet’s unaltered painting, revealing the source behind every shot. The visual development and generation workflow was created and iterated on the FLORA canvas.
