My thesis reveals the eternal loss and sorrow of women, seen through the changing status of the “divine woman,” a recurring figure from ancient Chinese mythology. Fluid lettering shaped from my own voice represents the hidden voices of drowned girls who became goddesses. The overlapping typography shows how female voices were hidden by literary traditions. Countless histories are layered in the text, and innumerable women intertwine with the divine woman. But the water flowing through their fingers and blurring the ink—is it rain or tears?
