زده گی

نقل به مضمون می کنم: چیزهایی هستند که روح مارا می خورند، می خراشند، می سوزانند و . . .

آنچه که در اطراف مان می گذرد توام با انبوهی از دردهایی است که می تواند، و حتا می گویم، می بایست آبشخور فضایی باشد که تصاویر مان در آن شکل بگیرد و عرضه شود. به خوشی ها و ملایمت ها پشت نکرده ام یا بودن شان را نفی نمی کنم اما همواره در زنده گی چیزهایی هستند که . . .

مفاهیم معاصر، خود دارای نوعی وازده گی نسبت به مفهوم کلاسیک زنده گی هستند. خوشی ها وخوبی ها در زیر لایه ای از ناخوشایندی ها در جریان است و در مقام مقایسه در می یابیم که خوشی ها زودگذرترند. ناخوشایندی ها چه حاصل الکن بودن روابط انسانی مان باشد و چه منتج از آنچه که در روابط اجتماعی مان رخ می دهد، حتا محصول آنچه که بیرون از ما و روابط مان رخ می دهد ؛ باعث می شود تا قسمتی از روح یا جسم ویا هردوی اینها آسیب ببینند واین در عین آن است که زنده گی با شدت در جریان است و وقعی به این خورده گی ها نمی نهد. تعابیر و مفاهیمی همچون دل زده گی، وازده گی، شتاب زده گی، سرزده گی، گند زده گی، خواب زده گی، زل زده گی، گرما زده گی، مرگ زده گی، دریازده گی، زنگ زده گی و... همه گی دارای نوعی از این ناخوشایندی ها هستند که منشا هریک با دیگری متفاوت و نتایج شان بر روح، جسم و زنده گی، دارای تشابهاتی است.

آنچه که در این گرد هم آمدن مورد تاکید قرار می گیرد، تلاش برای نشان دادن یکی از این مفاهیم در قالب هر اثر است. چه، صاحبین آثار نیز در طول زنده گی، گاه و بیگاه در معرض این ناخوشایندی ها هستند و از این منظر به دلیل تاثیر بیشتر یکی از این ناخوشایندی ها بر روح و جسم هنرمند است که توان بروز هر مفهوم در اثری خاص بیش از سایرین به چشم می خورد. این مفاهیم نه به عنوان نام اثر، بلکه ناظر بر مفهومی که در هر یک از آثار به چشم می خورد انتخاب شده و به اشتراک گذاشته شده است. اشراف هنرمند هر اثر و مماس بودن او با جوهر هر یک از این مفاهیم باعث شده است تا اثرش علی رغم عنوان شخصی، ذیل یکی از این مفاهیم به مخاطب عرضه شود.   

زده گی از هیچ یک از ما دور نیست؛ می خورد، می خراشد، می سوزاند و...

Corrosion  

There are some things that corrode, scratch and scorch our spirit.

What happens around us is twin with numerous pains that can, and even, should be destiny of our images. I never turned my back on joys and softnesses or never deny their existence but constantly there are somethings in life that…

Corrosion is not the solution for solving these things and doesn’t count indispensable this duty, corrosion wants to indicate.

Contemporary concepts, in relation to classical concepts of life have a kind of corrosion.

Joys and goodnesses moves under the layer of unpleasantness, but more ephemeral than them. Even if unpleasantness are the result of our stammered relationship or the result of what happens in our social relations, it hurts some part of spirit or body or both of them, but life is going on and doesn’t pay  attention to these all corrosions. Concepts like cardiorrosion, loosorrosion, hasteorrosion, caputorrosion, sleeporrosion, deathorrosion, searrosion, thermorrosion, gazeorrosion, messorrosion all have this kind of unpleasantness that differ in origins but have similar results on spirit, body and life. All our attempts are to indicate one of these concepts in frame of each work. As artists, in during of life, occasionally, faced with this unpleasantness and because of its effect on artist’s spirit and body, detection of each concept in specific work will be seen more than other works. These concepts has been selected and shared not as a name of work, but as a spectator on concepts. Corrosion entrusts each concept to somebody in order to find a way to indicate these things.    

Corrosion is not far from none of us: 

It corrodes, scratches and scorches and …

More About Tehran

Overview and HistoryTehran is the capital of Iran and the largest city in the Middle East, with a population of fifteen million people living under the peaks of the Alborz mountain range.Although archaeological evidence places human activity around Tehran back into the years 6000BC, the city was not mentioned in any writings until much later, in the thirteenth century. It's a relatively new city by Iranian standards.But Tehran was a well-known village in the ninth century. It grew rapidly when its neighboring city, Rhages, was destroyed by Mongolian raiders. Many people fled to Tehran.In the seventeenth century Tehran became home to the rulers of the Safavid Dynasty. This is the period when the wall around the city was first constructed. Tehran became the capital of Iran in 1795 and amazingly fast growth followed over the next two hundred years.The recent history of Tehran saw construction of apartment complexes and wide avenues in place of the old Persian gardens, to the detriment of the city's cultural history.The city at present is laid out in two general parts. Northern Tehran is more cosmopolitan and expensive, southern Tehran is cheaper and gets the name "downtown."Getting ThereMehrabad airport is the original one which is currently in the process of being replaced by Imam Khomeini International Airport. The new one is farther away from the city but it now receives all the international traffic, so allow an extra hour to get there or back.TransportationTehran driving can be a wild free-for-all like some South American cities, so get ready for shared taxis, confusing bus routes and a brand new shiny metro system to make it all better. To be fair, there is a great highway system here.The metro has four lines, tickets cost 2000IR, and they have segregated cars. The women-only carriages are the last two at the end, FYI.Taxis come in two flavors, shared and private. Private taxis are more expensive but easier to manage for the visiting traveler. Tehran has a mean rush hour starting at seven AM and lasting until 8PM in its evening version. Solution? Motorcycle taxis! They cut through the traffic and any spare nerves you might have left.People and CultureMore than sixty percent of Tehranis were born outside of the city, making it as ethnically and linguistically diverse as the country itself. Tehran is the most secular and liberal city in Iran and as such it attracts students from all over the country.Things to do, RecommendationsTake the metro to the Tehran Bazaar at the stop "Panzda Gordad". There you can find anything and everything -- shoes, clothes, food, gold, machines and more. Just for the sight of it alone you should take a trip there.If you like being outside, go to Darband and drink tea in a traditional setting. Tehranis love a good picnic and there are plenty of parks to enjoy. Try Mellat park on a friday (fridays are public holidays), or maybe Park Daneshjou, Saaii or Jamshidieh.Remember to go upstairs and have a look around, always always always! The Azadi Tower should fit the bill; it was constructed to commemorate the 2500th anniversary of the Persian Empire.Tehran is also full of museums such as:the Contemporary Art Museumthe Abghine Musuem (glass works)the 19th century Golestan Royal Palace museumthe museum of carpets (!!!)Reza Abbasi Museum of extraordinary miniaturesand most stunning of all,the Crown Jewels Museum which holds the largest pink diamond in the world and many other jaw-dropping jewels.Text by Steve Smith.
