What Remains: Stay as Long as You Can 

Silkscreen print on transparent mesh, steel suspension structure, basil

What Remains: Stay as Long as You Can by Fatma Abdulhadi is another garden in the heart, a continuous conversation with her earlier work I Wish You in Heaven. This new work is commissioned by the Diriyah Biennale Foundation and the Taipei Fine Arts Museum, and will be presented as part of  14th Taipei Biennale, opening on November 1, 2025. 

It creates a quiet, garden-like space filled with an atmosphere full of fragrance, shade, and silence. The basil reminds her of family rituals passed down from her mother. Visitors are invited to pause and remember. The work tries to preserve what is fading: the smell of basil, lost memories, and inner emotions.
Abdulhadi creates her own printing colors with pigments from plants and natural materials. With her drawings and printing technique on silk, she tells stories rooted in memory and emotion that reflect on
care and connection.
