Overview



A cover collaboration for the 100th issue of Lexus Amazing Life uses a generative city to imagine people and the future.



## Work and viewing



This page records the 2023 collaboration. Its original poem moves from urban mirages and unfinished futures toward possibilities traced through material forms.



## Original work record



Original text: cheyuwu.com/lexus2023



In the urban mirage, time's mirages flicker endlessly
The future, like an unfinished painting, still being slowly drawn
Through the contours of the material world
We outline those undefined, yet beautiful fantasies



Through co-creation with Lexus Amazing Life magazine cover, connecting the three-way dialogue between cars and people, people and the future, perfectly interpreting the 100th issue theme "Login to the Future Next Generation"



"In the urban mirage, phantoms dance with time's fleeting gleam,
Where futures are still under construction, like a dream.
With the solid forms of the material world, we trace,
Undefined beauties and fantasies, a wistful space."
