Dark Birth: ISIS

Amaneh Eskandari's painting draws from the myth of Isis, goddess of resurrection and divine wisdom. The figure emerges from shadow, her face both fractured and luminous, echoing Isis' eternal grief and strength as she wandered the world in search of Osiris. The hollow gaze holds sorrow and resilience, while the veiled tones suggest both concealment and revelation. This work reflects the timeless endurance of the feminine spirit wounded, yet endlessly creative and reborn.
