ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This collection is the result of the days when I was bedridden as a kidney patient and was dialyzed three times a week due to my kidney failure. At home, away from my family, my wife, and my daughters, I was quarantined and painted my loneliness on cardboard and paper. Then Corona came and this feeling of loneliness became more and more, but I tried with high spirits to continue my work and to prove my lonely moments in my paintings. The work of this collection is related to the first days of my illness, which was full of pain, stress, and restlessness. The first days are full of strange and even scary dreams. In these works, I have tried to depict a part of these dreams that mostly came to me during dialysis.

I am Jamaleddin Toomajnia. Toomaj is a name of a Turkmen tribe. I was born in 1981 in Gonbade Kavoos in Iran, one of three cities that called Turkmen Sahra. My paintings are inspiring my life as a Turk-men in Iran. We live in contradictory life in Iran today between tradition and modernity Turk-men people as Sunni Muslims have own traditions and own unique clothes, they have symbolic carpet patterns and embroideries. A hundred years ago Turk-men people lived in a nomadic way in their bowers named ‘Oy.' Nowadays they are living in Turkmenistan and two big cities in Iran, Gonbade Kavoos and Bandar Torkaman. They have own rituals and their ideas about the world. In fact, maybe I am tired of this paradoxical world and in my research in painting, I want to escape from some aspects of the traditional world that cause restricted thoughts. In my works, I try to show my paradoxical view to the world that it came from my complicated society.
