This video highlights artists behind the taro leaf symbol artworks, sharing their reflections on the taro leaf and how it represents the Rohingya existence today.

The taro leaf is a symbol representing the Rohingya experience of statelessness. It comes from a proverb: Hoñsu Fathar Faaní, which is about how water sits on a Taro leaf, like its floating, and when the wind blows, it rolls off, leaving no mark. This reel shares taro leaf artworks created by Rohingya artists living in the Kutupalong refugee camp.
