She has no reason to celebrate Christmas this year.
She is stuck in one of her painful schizophrenic episodes, she dreams at night that she has two children, both of whom are shot in the street.
When she wakes up, she finds herself in a prison under brutal attacks by savage humans...
She locks the doors
seals her windows,
turns off the lights
And hides her gun under the pillow.
She has no reason to celebrate Christmas this year, because she has forgotten her identity; She thinks it doesn't exist;
No name, no face, no destiny.
She is in the middle of an atomic bomb explosion.
Every little thing causes an endless panic for her.
She broke the TV, and does not use electricity nor she drinks water coming out of kitchen pipes.

She sits among lighted candles, and treats her wounds with laudanum.

Her plan for these terrible and frozen nights is an eternal sleep, away from all sounds and ghosts and bombs and corpses...

Insufflate

Perhaps the most impressive story that was repeated many times among the people of the town was the story of "Mata" who was a healer that went to different cities with her old chariot and sold medicinal plants and cured the sick.
Mata's homemade medicines and herbal concoctions were famous.
One day, she confronted with a rare medicinal plant (Lophophoea williamsi)
She dried it, burned it and inhaled its smoke throughout the journey.
That day she saw "The Great Spirit" on her journey in the middle of desert.
The spirit immediately showed her mercy by healing her paralyzed hand.
After the effect of the plant wears off, she returned to the city after hunting Lophophora bushes and collecting some cactus.
She was able to do the prescription by burning Lophophora cactus in the patient's room, feeding it to them and applying ointment, curing any disease.
On Tuesdays she would come back to desert and fill her big sack with cactus and return to the city.
Until one day in the desert something strange happened and she realized that she had forgotten something and anxiously started looking for it not knowing what!
Days of searching passed by and dehydration made her mind dizzy and face dry and pale.

She lost her right hand again: desert betrayed her by taking back it’s blessings then she turned into a ghost that slowly walked in the hot barren land of the desert looking for something she had lost.
Desert cursed her by taking her soul and replacing it with a part of itself
Mata lost her everything and became a wandering human like figure trodding the waste land for ever.

The prohibition of women's music groups in Iran is a clear example of gender discrimination and inequality. the fact that women are not permitted to express themselves artistically because of their gender is an affront to their dignity and a violation of their right to freedom of expression.
The mandatory hijab laws further exacerbate this situation, as they prevent women from performing in public and competing with men on an equal footing.

This situation is unacceptable and must be denounced by all who value human rights and equality.
Women and girls in Iran have the right to live their lives freely and creatively, without fear or oppression. It is essential that their rights to express themselves through music and other forms of art are respected and protected.

As an artist, I encourage you to join in the fight for gender equality in Iran and around the world. Through education, advocacy, and action, we can support the right of Iranian women to freely express their artistic talents and to live full and dignified lives.

Libertarian assassin #02

Speaking, for me, is like scratching the scabs of half-healed wounds.
Silence might be the only place where I find myself without interfering with others. I remain silent, but alive.
Sometimes I think if I stay quiet, the world finds more clarity. I need this peace.
This silence is not surrender but resistance—an act of defiance against a world drowning in hollow words and the comfort of distorted truths.

The Dao that can be trodden is not the enduring and unchanging Dao. The name that can be named is not the enduring and unchanging name. having no name, it is the Originator of heaven and earth; having a name, it is the Mother of all things. 📸

Nihility

Those two sisters who were in charge of a church in southern Mexico.
They had lost their faith.
At the suggestion of a wise old man, they came to Sonara desert to eat San Pedro cactus.

They regained their lost faith: But they still stayed in the desert.
They built a church from dry trees and gave cactus to those who were lost.

After some time, a storm came and destroyed the church, and the two sisters lost their intellect and turned into cactus.

Madeira & Maria Iglesias

Those witches vowed to be content with enlightenment and not have personal desires.
But they did not remain faithful to their promise.
The desert condemned them and the cactus enchanted them:

So they all became half-human/half-cactus creatures.

Side effect

My world was very limited in size and experience. Small things took on extra importance, at least to a child.

VAGA

Oh, do you see it?
Do you see this remarkable glow that emanates from within me?
It's like a burning core has settled inside me.
It illuminates my whole being with its otherworldly glow.
Can you feel the heat?


It is as if all the boundaries of reality have been broken and I am standing on an unknown abyss.

I imagine that this luminous core is the key to unlocking hidden truths and that I am a container of cosmic wisdom
I am no longer limited by the limitations of normal existence.
There are whispers...
Whispers that only I can discern resonate deep within my consciousness, guiding me to the answers I seek.

But alas, as the tendrils of this illusion twist in my mind, the reality kills my tired senses.
Doubt slips through the cracks, questioning the authenticity of my newfound brilliance.
Is it just a trick of the mind?
A figment of my imagination, born from the depths of my desperate longing for significance?

I clutch at my body, desperately seeking proof of the extraordinary nature I see within myself.
But every touch reveals only flesh and bones, mundane and ordinary...
However, I refuse to accept this trivial fact because I am convinced that there is more to me than meets the eye.

the world stares at me
Confused and worried about the strange things that have involved me.
They see a woman
Lost, like a ghost in a labyrinth of fantastic illusions.
They turn away, shake their heads, dismiss me as an outcast, a fraud.

But I continue my work, undeterred by their cynicism and contempt. Because deep down I know that this is the shining core of my truth,
my nature
My undeniable connection to something beyond human understanding.
Maybe it's an illusion...
A beautiful delusion that shields me from the mundane and ignites the flames of courage within me, my refuge in a world that often feels stagnant and meaningless.

Join this delirious dance, my dear witness, as I suspend your disbelief for a moment and immerse you in the sacred glow of my imaginary core.
Let us cross the realms of possibility,
where dreams and illusions
It is intertwined and illuminates the way to the reality that we have not yet understood.

Collaborations

Libertarian assassin #01

Those who claim to know everything and can fix everything, will eventually come to the conclusion that everyone must be killed!

Libertarian assassin

The first warrior shaman, known as the "Blood Mage", was a fierce and ruthless enemy of the devil, who promised to rain down fiery death upon his foes. With a single gesture, he could summon forth dark powers that would consume all before him. His spells were the stuff of legend, whispered in hushed tones by those who had seen him in action.

_
Together, these warrior shamans swore an oath to destroy the devil and send him back to the hellish depths from which he came. They raised their hands to the heavens and swore to make their enemies tremble in fear at the mere mention of their names. With their powerful magic and unwavering determination, they would be the ones to triumph over evil and save the world from destruction.

"Blood Mage"

In the ancient texts, the shaman warriors, imbued with the power of the gods. These shamans were the ones who could harness the power of the elements, to aid them in their battles against the darkness.

The "Ice King" was another warrior shaman, renowned for her mastery over the element of ice. Her cold gaze could freeze the very souls of her enemies, who quaked in fear at the mere mention of her name. She swore to crush the devil beneath the weight of her icy wrath, and to freeze his very heart so that he could never threaten the world of mortals again.

Encounter with the NAGUAL  #017

VAGABONDISM

Oh, hear me, noble listeners, as I unravel a tale of bold defiance and the triumph of individuality. In the era of our forefathers, where tradition held sway and obedience echoed through the ages, we stood united under the banner of their wisdom. But now, a new day dawns, and we proclaim our emancipation from the shackles of their decrees.

No longer do we dance to the rhythm of yesteryears, blindly following the footsteps laid before us. We stand tall, with hearts untamed, veering from the paths prescribed by our ancestors. In this bold admission, we declare that their orders no longer bind us, and in this liberation, we find joy and fulfillment.

With audacious steps, we break free from the long-held traditions, daring to question the status quo they fortified. We challenge the antiquated mold, for the times have evolved, and so have we. No more shall we be slaves to the echoes of their voices; instead, we embrace the ideals of progress and forge our own destiny.

In the embrace of innovation, we discover new horizons, each step an ode to our own ingenuity. We honor their wisdom, but also acknowledge the limitations of their age. Our intellect shines as a beacon, illuminating uncharted landscapes, where our creativity and individuality manifest in splendid colors.

For it is in our divergence that we find true enlightenment. The symphony of dissenting voices harmonizes, woven into a tapestry of bold ideas and fresh perspectives. Our ancestors may have flourished in their time, but now we stand on their shoulders, ready to transcend their legacy and etch our names upon the annals of history.

Oh noble listeners, rejoice with us as we declare our newfound liberty! For it is through this admission that we transcend the confines of conformity, embracing the vast expanse of possibility that lies before us. We are the architects of our destiny, the maestros of our own symphony, and in this grand dance of defiance, we forge a legacy that will echo through the corridors of time.

Thus, let our chosen path be a testament to the indomitable spirit that resides within each one of us. We no longer follow the ways of our ancestors, and in this revelation, we find joy, empowerment, and the unyielding pursuit of our own truth.

Our problem is not whether our desires are satisfied or not?
Rather, our problem is that:
"How do we know what we want?"
There is nothing spontaneous and nothing natural in human desires.
Our desires are fake !!!
 We must be taught to have desires for ourselves...

- Does death really stop to watch a warrior dance?

 A warrior is the most humble of all.
She cannot change the intentions of her death, but her perfect mind, which has been able to store up a lot of power with her extraordinary deeds, can undoubtedly hold death for a moment;  A relatively long moment during which she can enjoy one last reminder of her authority.
Perhaps it can be said that this is a favor that death gives to those with a perfect intelligence.

TLP - Episode3

... And finally, when the end comes, when death tolls heavy on her left shoulder, her ever-ready mind flies to its preferred place and her soul dances there until death.

A dying warrior performes a short dance if she has little authority,
but if she has considerable authority she will dance a unique one,
and it does not matter if it is short or long or terrifying,
in any case, Death will stand and Participate in the performance of "The last dance" of the warrior.

Death won't take away the warrior who recounts the events and actions of her life for the last time;

He waits till the dance end...

The best thing about dreams is that fleeting moment, when you are between asleep and awake, when you don't know the difference between reality and fantasy, when for just that one moment you feel with your entire soul that the dream is reality, and it really happened.

The realm of dreams

I created this collection with the aim of creating new and higher quality photos and presenting it to you.

"Mashayekh" winds

"Zar Ceremony" is a spine-chilling ritual performed in the southern regions of Iran, particularly in Hormozgan and Qeshm Island. This ceremony aims to rid people of evil spirits and ghosts believed to inhabit their bodies.

According to local beliefs, an otherworldly wind or Jinn traverses the sea waves, penetrating human bodies in various ways along the southern coast. When conventional treatments fail, those who remain unwell are thought to have become "Havai," with a demon or ghost taking residence within them. To restore their health, the Zar ceremony is conducted, accompanied by music, creating a mesmerizing exorcism. While the Zaar ceremony originated in Africa, the Iranian rendition showcases its own distinctive style, setting it apart from North African traditions.

Zar, in the Persian language, signifies a state of chaos. In a figurative sense, it refers to a supernatural being found in the southern regions of Iran and along the Persian Gulf coastline.

In the southern regions of Iran, particularly Qeshm Island, there is a belief in the presence of winds that can be categorized as either vicious or peaceful, associated with being a believer or non-believer. The latter category, including Zar, is considered more dangerous.

According to local beliefs, individuals who fall ill and cannot be cured through conventional means are thought to be afflicted by genies or wandering souls. Consequently, special celebrations accompanied by music are organized to facilitate their healing.

🗨️ Mashayekh Wind: This wind category includes both safe and pure winds, as well as dangerous ones. They are often found abundantly along coasts.

It would be a mistake to see a symbol in this world and think that the Artwork can finally be a refuge for the absurdity.
The Artwork is an absurd phenomenon itself, and the only thing to do is to describe it.
Art is not an escape for mental suffering, on the contrary; it is one of the signs of this suffering and reflects it throughout human thought.
