Seyhoun Art Gallery Oct 2014 Hoda Hasani Afsaneh Mahmoudi You Always Walk In The Dark 03
Tehran

تو همیشه در تاریکی قدم بر میداری

آغاز بر این است که

از خودی سرچشمه می گیرد که آرزوهایی گران در دل دارد. آزادی می طلبد و در حد می ماند.

حدی که بزرگی رویایش را کوچک می کند.

آغاز بر این است که

در تاریکی قدم بر می دارد.خودی که من هستم.خودی که تو هستی.صدایی را می شنویم که از عمق سکوت بر می آید.

آغاز بر این است که

در تاریکی پیش می رویم به سوی مرگی از پیش ساخته.

اما آرزوها چه می شوند؟

چه چیزی مرا باز می گرداند؟

چه چیزی مرا جدا کرده است؟

چشم ها را بسته ایم و دنیایی را ساخته ایم که در آن تنها صدایی که شنیده می شود، فریاد های سکوت است.

زمان شنیدن است.صدایی که از محدودیت های کوچک بر می آید، بزرگ می شود، بلند می شود و شنیده می شود.

یک نفر چشم هایش را باز می کند. همان خودی که منم، همان خودی که تو هستی. روشنایی به چشم می خورد .

وقت آن است که آرزو را به تن کنیم.

آرزویی که در میان تاریکی و چشمان بسته فراموش شده بود.

بیدار می شویم. متولد می شویم و اولین قدم هایمان را بر می داریم. قدم هایی که روزی بوی مرگ می دادند و حالا

زنده اند. کاملا زنده...

خود را می بینیم و تنها یک قدم جلوتر. آنوقت که دری باز خواهد شد.

روبه روی خود می ایستم. خود را از نزدیک نگاه می کنم.

همان خودی که منم

همان خودی که تو هستی

و تنها یک قدم جلوتر

انتخاب می کنم ...

You always walk in darkness

The beginning is born from the self that nurtures invaluable desires. It seeks freedom and remains restricted; the restriction that tapers off its sublime desires.

The beginning is the self’s walking in darkness; the self that is me, the self that is you. We hear a voice coming from the depth of silence.

The beginning is our walking in darkness to a preconceived death.

But what about the yearnings?

What is it that takes me back?

What has estranged me?

We have closed our eyes and’ve built a world whose only sounds are the wails of speechlessness.

It’s time to hear. The sounds born from venial constraints outgrow, heighten and are heard.

Someone opens their eyes. The self that is me, the self that is you. The light is seen.

It is time to wear the cravings; the cravings that were forgotten in darkness and sightlessness of our eyes.

We awaken, are born and take our first steps; the steps that once smelled of death but are now alive; dead alive…

We watch ourselves, only one more step ahead, then a door will be opened.

I stand in front of myself; watch myself closely:

The self that is you

And only one more step

I choose . . .

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.
