'Unvollendet' (unfinished) consists of 'un-' and 'vollendet' (completed). 'Un-' reverses the meaning; 'vollendet' is the participle form of 'vollenden' (to complete) and describes something that has been finished.

'Unvollendet' (unfinished) is especially often used with works and projects, for example in 'ein unvollendeter Roman' (an unfinished novel), 'ein unvollendetes Kunstwerk' (an unfinished work of art), or 'ein unvollendetes Projekt' (an unfinished project).
