Aaran Art Gallery Mar 2012 Elika Hedayat Ecliptic Lunacy 03
Tehran

آثار الیکا هدایت استثمار، بی تفاوتی، بی عدالتی و زوال در حوزه زندگی اجتماعی را به تصویر می کشند. شهروند تابع و تزویری ذاتی که برای بقا به آن نیازمند است. تزویری که در رابطه بین فریبکار و فریب دیده حاکم است. " زنجیره" بدن ها تشخیص قربانی را غیرممکن می سازد.

آثار الیکا هدایت آزار دهنده هستند. گزارشی از بخشی از جامعه : از مضحکه تا تقلید.شخصیت ها تشنه توجه هستند. اصرار بر دیده شدن ادامه دارد. جماعت خود شیفته ای که تاکید بر حضور دارند. 

بدنهای ناکامل، بدنهای مثله شده، کالبدهائی لامکان. بدنهائی که بدون آغاز یا پایان و مشخصا" بدون هیچ هدفی، وجود دارند. هنرمند به صراحت و بی پرده بیننده را دعوت می کند که به ظاهرسازی و آشفتگی حاضر در خیابانهای تهران توجه کند. اینها "عکس های فوری" از بخشی از جامعه هستند که درگیر عوامگرائی،"خود نمایشی"، و بازیهای پشت پرده "خرده قدرتها " هستند. 

این آثار ادراکی است از ناهنجاریهای واقعیتی که به تصویر می کشند. در عین حال آنچه که منتقل می کنند این است که هنرمندان پیشرو کشورمان، با اصرار بر ثبت واقعیات، خود انکار تاریکی هستند./ابلها مرد، عدوی تو نیستم من، انکار توام/. و این سرچشمه قدرت هنر ایران و نوید آینده ای بهتر است.

Elika Hedayat addresses aspects of exploitation, indifference, injustice and degradation of public life. She pictures the subaltern citizens and the essential duplicity necessary for their existence, duplicity that is evident in relationship of deceiver and deceived. The "chain" of bodies in her work makes it impossible to recognize who is or is not a victim.

The characters are determined to be noticed, they insist to be seen. The  self satisfied populace  with their absolute perseverance  to Exist. Her work is decidedly disturbing and at the same time they are portrayals of parts of society, ranging from ridiculous to parody. Incomplete or mutilated  bodies, bodies without locations. They stand without a beginning or end and evidently with no direction. 

Elika Hedayat, with precision and unapologetically invites us to reflect on the hypocrisy and chaos that governs the streets of Tehran. These are snap shots of parts of our society, reminding us of the vulgarity, exhibitionism and under lying tensions of Petit powers.

 It is an art that can be understood in the disorder of the reality that it is portraying. But it also shows us that as long as our progressive artists are willing to push the limits, by the mere fact of their existence they are the denial of the darkness. And there lies the strength of Iranian art and promise of a far better future.

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.
