Water is the arche, the essence of nature.

 

Presented in a dreamlike yet surreal narratives, ‘Withered Leaves, Eternal Spring’ explores the origin of nature and the wondrous quality of water.

 

The illustrations present silent, abstract narratives from the perspective of the protagonist (whose face remains anonymous in the story), witnessing the emergence of nature as the guiding nymph revives the parched ground through the water from a magical well.

 

From it, all life begins and to it, all returns.
