“Not Yet" Delaram Kia— from the Painful Rebirth exhibition

Artist: Delaram Kia Material: Ostrich Egg, Concrete , Brass, Acrylic Paint Artist Statement : "Not Yet" This work holds a moment between rupture and renewal. The dark interior carries the trace of violence and loss, while a faint green persists—suggesting a life not fully extinguished. Rather than denying reality or surrendering to it, the work remains in suspension: a beginning that has not happened yet, but has not disappeared.
