Artwork Description

Searching for the Missed Mystery of Life: Beneath the Leaf of Memory is a contemplative linocut exploring the hidden continuity between human consciousness and the living memory of nature.

Created in 2010, the composition presents three vertically aligned human figures that appear to merge into a single presence. Rather than representing separate individuals, they suggest different dimensions of one existence: the physical body, the inner self, and the invisible consciousness that connects them.

Above the figures, a floating cloud shelters a single leaf. Throughout the artist’s symbolic language, leaves represent the memory of nature and the perpetual cycle of life. Positioned above the figures, the leaf becomes a quiet reminder that human existence grows from the same living source as the natural world.

The branching structures woven through the bodies reinforce this relationship, while the surrounding stars dissolve the boundaries between earth and the cosmos. The composition remains deliberately minimal, allowing silence, balance, and negative space to become active elements within the image.

Rather than describing an event, the work invites contemplation of humanity’s place beneath the larger memory of the universe.

Artist’s Statement

In many of my works, nature is not a background but a living participant in human existence.

The leaf in this print represents more than a botanical object. It symbolizes the enduring memory carried by nature itself. Human beings may appear separate, yet we continue to emerge from the same invisible processes that shape trees, rivers, seasons, and stars.

The three figures are not portraits. They are different states of one consciousness, reminding us that identity is layered rather than fixed.

The silence within this composition is intentional. I wanted the viewer to experience the work almost as a pause for meditation, where the simplest forms reveal deeper relationships.


Historical Context

This print belongs to the artist’s 2010 linocut series, developed during an important phase of symbolic experimentation.

During the same period, Abu Naser Robii produced a monumental 3.5 × 7 ft linocut, two versions of which received the Best Printmaking Award at the Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy Biennale Young Artists Exhibition. One impression is now preserved in the Grameenphone Corporate Art Collection, Bangladesh.
