Shirin Art Gallery Oct 2013 Nadia Shams 01
Tehran
مجموعه خود زن، پرتره¬هایي از زنان است. زنانی که در حال آراستن، برانداز کردن یا به طور کلی آماده ساختن خویش¬اند. هنرمند با کادر بسته¬ نقاشی¬ها روایتی واقعی، از نزدیک و مستند از این وضعیت دارد. گویا مخاطب را ناگهان، بی¬مقدمه و بی¬واسطه به درون خلوت و فضای خصوصی این زنان می¬اندازد. آنها متوجه نگاه ما نیستند، اما ما نگاه و حالات بسیار شخصی و پنهانشان را می¬بینیم، آنهم در لحظه¬هايي كه ميان چهره¬ي خود و چهرۀ پیش¬روی خود و چهره¬ای که انتظارش را دارند، متوقف شده¬اند. حالاتی پیش از تبدیل¬شدن به ابژه¬ای¬ متفاوت، و احتمالاً زیبا، متناسب، سالم و ابدی که با اطوارهای گهگاه خشن و تند و تیز صورت و دست¬ها همراه است. این زنان درحالیکه به ابژه¬هایی برای دیده¬شدن تبدیل می¬شوند سوژه¬هایی هستند که انتظار دیده¬شدن ندارند و در این وضعیت گذرا، تصویری کلی از خود می¬سازند که گویی خودشان هم متوجه این تصویر نیستند و در آن حضور ندارند. جالب این جاست که هنرمند در مقام ناظر خودمانی و محرم این زنان از این لحظه نابهنگام، لحظه¬ای که درست پیش از به نمایش درآمدن آنهاست، پرده بر می¬دارد. حال و هوای این لحظه، موقتی اما حیاتی، وسواس¬گونه و توأم با دقت و جدیت است. هارمونی خاکستری¬های رنگی کارها نیز ذهنیتی مردد و ابهام¬آمیز می¬سازد که در عین همراهی با خلوتگاه آرام این زنان، در تقابل با اکت آرایش و چهره¬های نمایشی شفاف و پر کنتراستی است که قرار است آنها از خودشان بسازند. شاید در نهایت هنرمند با کمک عناصر بصری و  محتوایی  می¬خواهد مخاطب را بر¬انگیزد تا خود او نیز این نمایش دیدن و دیده¬شدن هرروزه را با لختی درنگ و تردید تماشا کند.

"The Self-Female (woman herself) Collection" is a collection of portraits of women. Women are being attired, viewing and decorating themselves, and, generally, making themselves ready. Using a close-up technique in the paintings, the artist presents a close, documentary and real narration of women and suddenly exposes the audiences to the women's privacy and solitude offhand and immediately. The women in the paintings do not notice our look but we could observe their look and even their very personal and secret dispositions at the moments that they are suspended between their real and their expected faces vis-à-vis.
These states which are before becoming a different and probably beautiful, intact and eternal objects, are accompanied by deformed gestures and sometimes rough hand movements. These women, while becoming objects to be viewed, are already subjects that don’t expect to be observed, and in this transient status, portray an image of themselves that as though at these interim but critical moments, fussy-like and serious, are not cognizant of and are not present in themselves. 

What is interesting is that the artist as the confidant and off-the-records viewer of these women unveils this unpropitious moments; a moment just before their exhibition.
The grey harmony of colours of the works depicts a hesitant and vague state of the mind which is in contrast to the act of decoration, dramatic, crystal and full-of-contrast faces that they are supposed to make out of themselves. Perhaps at last the artist, with the help of visual and contextual elements, would like to evoke the audience so that he himself views this everyday viewing and being viewed with some hesitation and indecision.

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.
