Royal Flush

Sandra Low's Follow the Lady was created in part of the 'Utopia/Dystopia' portfolio, curated by artist Miyo Stevens-Gandara. Miyo invited 26 artists to each pick two cards from a full deck, incorporating a diverse range of interpretations and ideas into a single, unified collection. In her Utopian print, Low warns to "be careful what you wish for." -- In this version of Utopia, the card has a dialogue with an unseen player who has won Paradise but has to confront the consequences go playing strip poker with God. The number 8 is considered lucky in Chinese culture, as it is similar to the word "faat" or fortune. The Chinese character and idealized mountain landscape are pictured in the side panels. The center image features a female angel warrior - sewer - gardener slurping an hourglass smoothie.
