The Sudden Resurrection

Amir Taba | Stand : F04

This painting explores the complexity of transformation—how it can be incomplete, distorted, or even imposed. The three central figures reflect different states of becoming: one was meant to grow into something noble but ended up burdened; another is bound by unseen forces, struggling to breathe; and the third is mid-transformation, caught between longing and disillusionment.

The title is drawn from a poem by Rumi, who writes of sudden awakenings and the tension between inner light and worldly weight. Here, resurrection is not a triumph—it’s a question.

What do we become when we try to evolve? And at what cost?
