نمایشگاه انفرادی آثار"نگین جواهری فر" با عنوان "غول خاکستری" مهر 1403 گالری شیرین
نگین جواه ر یفر متولد سال ۱۳۶۵ در اهواز است.
او نقاشی را در دانشگاه هنر و معماری تهران گذرانده است. اولین مواجهه نگین با هنر، در کنار مادربزرگش بود هنگامی که زیبای یهای بافتنی را به او نشان میداد. همینطور مادرش که نقاش یهایی از طبیعت خلق م یکرد.
نگین اما مسیر هنری خودش را با رفتن به رشته گرافیک در هنرستان آغاز کرد. او سپس به تحصیل زبان انگلیسی در دانشگاه پرداخت و در این زمان هم از فضای هنر دور نماند و در کلاس های سفال و سرامیک موزه آبگینه شرکت کرد. سرانجام در سال ۱۳۸۷ در رشته نقاشی دانشگاه هنر و معماری تهران به تحصیل مشغول شد و در سال ۱۳۹۵ فارغ التحصیل شد. اولین گا مهای او در خلق یک اثر، بازی با عناصر هندسی در غالب فضای شهری بود که با فرم های انسانی و با متریال محدودی همچون مداد و اکرلیک سفید کار شده بود و در ادامه رنگ، تکه چسبانی و با زماند ههای صنعتی به کارهایش اضافه شد.
نگین درباره مجموعه آثار پیش رو اینگونه م یگوید:
درون همه ما جهانی پنهان نهفته است. جایگاهی که هرگز به طور کامل در برابر چشمان دیگران قرار نمیگیرد. جایی که در آن، آوایی زمزمه م یکند، آوایی که سرشار از رازها و حقایق ناگفتنی است. در سکوت و تمرکز عمیق؛ لحظاتی که تمام آشفتگ یهای ذهن آرام می گیرند و انسان، فرصت خودشناسی و بازیافتن خویشتن را پیدا م یکند. در این لحظات است که م یتوان به عمق وجود رخنه کرد و با «غول خاکستری » درونی خویش رویارو شد.
این غول خاکستری، همان بخشی از ماست که فراتر از هر تصویر و تعریف ظاهری قرار دارد. او همواره در حال دگرگونی و تحول است. او آین های است که ما را به خودمان بازمی گرداند، اما نه آن خود متعارف و آشنا، بلکه آن خود ژرف و ناشناخته.
گام نهادن در سرزمین درون، گذر از جنگل انبوه باورها و پیش فر ضهاست. آنجا که همه چیز ممکن است، آنجا که هیچ چیز به صورت مطلق نیست. تنها در این سکوت درونی است که حقیقت خلوص خود را عیان میکند و انسان می تواند خود را در آیینه ماورای ظاهر ببیند.
با تأثیرپذیری از داستا نهای شاهنامه، میتوان کشمک شهای درونی انسان را به مثابه نبردی میان قهرمانان و نیروهای متضاد در نظر گرفت. این نبرد، نمایانگر تلاش فرد برای دگرگونی و تحول است.
طیف رنگی سیاه و سفید به عنوان نمادی از سفر به درون، حقیقتی را نشان م یدهد که فراتر از پیرای هها و تزئینات دنیوی است. این رن گها بیانگر تلاشی عمیق برای دستیابی به اصالت و اتصال به نظم هستی شناخت یای هستند که در ماورای زوال و تغییرات ظاهری قرار دارد و به ما یادآوری می کنند که هر انسان می تواند با پذیرش تضادهای درون خود، به درک عمی قتری از وجود خویش دست یابد.
Negin Javaherifar was born in 1986 in Ahvaz. She studied painting at the Art and
Architecture branch in Tehran.
Her artistic passion began when her grandmother introduced her to the beauty of colorful
knitting, alongside her mother, whose nature paintings had a deep influence on Negin.
Negin began her journey in the art world when she attended art school and studied
graphic design. After that, she was accepted into university and studied English, while
also attending pottery courses at the Abgineh Museum.
Eventually, she entered art university to study painting in 2008 and graduated in 2016.
Her early work focused on geometric subjects within urban spaces, created through human
shapes and limited materials like white pencil and acrylic paint, along with collage
and the use of industrial leftovers.
Negin describes this collection:
“There is a hidden universe inside all of us—a certain place that can never be completely
seen by others. Somewhere a whisper is always heard, full of secrets and untold truths.
In moments of deep silence and focus, when all mental chaos subsides, we have the
chance to discover ourselves. In that moment, you can delve deep and meet the ‘Gray
Giant’ within.
The Gray Giant is beyond external definition. He is always changing. He is like a mirror,
allowing us to confront our unknown inner character.
Stepping into our inner world means passing through the dense forest of our beliefs,
where all possibilities are open, and nothing is unreachable. Only under these circumstances
can the truth be revealed, allowing us to see beyond mere appearances.
Inspired by Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh, the inner human struggles can be seen as a battle
between heroes and villains. This battle reflects humanity’s efforts to change.
The black-and-white color palette, symbolizing the journey to the soul, reflects a reality
greater than any fleeting beauty. This palette represents the effort to achieve authenticity
and connect with the universal order, which stands firm against any destruction. It
reminds us that any human being can reach a higher level of self-awareness by embracing
their inner contradictions.”

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.
