The Water Bearers

2021

Wheaton, Maryland

Leila’s first large-scale mural pays homage to water bearers and ancient water protectors. It intertwines elements of nature and mythology, featuring an orange blossom tree symbolizing resilience and renewal, while parrots evoke communication and the interconnectedness of life. It is a visual poem of sustenance, heritage, and the enduring relationship between humanity and nature.
