Becoming dry leaves
By Farzana Ahmed, Bangladesh
I started seriously doing this drawing project from this august and already I finished 20 note books full with drawings. It happen because of some ongoing exhibition but it also happen because I wants to write and draw about this time.
It is a crucial time for all of us. As we are facing a big truth about life and death.
All of my write-up are feeling of each days. About my life and others too. On this work I am becoming dry leaves. This leaves grows at our garden.
Each morning I discover one gift from nature and that is some days dry leaves , some days birds feather, some days some dry flowers ….surprisely some days some person also .
I talk with them I made a community surrounding my living which wasn’t posable if this covid never came on our life. Because we was so busy with only our self.
Everything have two side one is bad another is good. I think all artist know how to survive on tuff time.
Like others I think I also trying to know about it on mentally and physically. Though its tuff but I think it
make me more stronger then before and now I can face anything for the rest of my life.
