Jabbar Al Gadban’s metal etching works from this period reflect a profound engagement with themes of memory, identity, and human resilience. His abstracted figures, often wrapped in layered textures and symbolic forms, evoke a deep emotional narrative that bridges personal and collective histories. Through the meticulous technique of metal etching, he achieves a rich surface quality that enhances the depth and movement within each composition. This period in his practice is marked by a strong connection to cultural roots and a poetic interpretation of displacement, struggle, and spiritual continuity. Al Gadban's works stand as visual testaments to the endurance of the human spirit in the face of fragmentation and change.
