Women are often sidelined in our society. Many of us have spent most of our lives being pushed out of the way, dismissed or ignored by those from whom we crave attention. We have become wallflowers: beautiful ornaments dwelling on the borders in the ballroom of life, waiting for our chance to pursue the dance of our dreams and ambitions. We have learned to be patient, and display our talents from the edges for anyone who might be enticed to engage with us. One day we will each be able to command the spotlight in the center of the room.

This piece is a 1/1 edition carefully created by Maneki Neko. It began as a text-to-image collaboration with an AI called ruDalle to synthesize interesting patterns and colors to use as seeds to synthesize images for a specific concept using an AI called Stable Diffusion. After many variations were created, the best were curated. These were finished in Photoshop by fixing any oddities with collage or drawing as well as color and detail editing to create a piece that executes the full expression of a vision, and is packed full of intricate detail.
