Working Women (2025 edition) is a reprint of Song Lu’s 2023 artist book, created to honor her mother’s retirement. The project uses AI-generated imagery to reimagine women drawn from myth, science, and culture, reflecting on memory, labor, and the ways technology reshapes female representation. Combining AI-generated images, short texts, and archival fragments, the work forms a poetic dialogue between human and machine perception, questioning how identity and emotion are mediated through data-driven aesthetics.

Song Lu (b. Guizhou, China) is a Brooklyn-based multimedia artist exploring AI imagery and the intersections of data, memory, and technology. Her work examines how technology reshapes reality and reveals structural blind spots, while her long-term projects extend toward human–nature–cosmos entanglements. She has exhibited internationally at UNTITLED Art Fair Miami, PHOTOFAIRS Shanghai, Breeze Art Fair Seoul, and ICP Photobook Fest, and was selected for the MIT AI Filmmaking Hackathon and featured in Art in America’s New Talent Issue“20 Artists to Watch.”
