Monir

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Earrings

INSPIRATION:
In fact, everything in this world is fragile; from the heart to light and horn and to bone. Eventually, two parallel lines intersect at infinity and become a broken line. Monir earrings have been inspired by an artwork of Monir Farmanfarmaian that is preserved in Courtesy Hains Gallery. She was a brilliant woman who was fascinated by the geometry and mirror works of Iran. When the geometrical lines enter the realm of mirrors, the exotic meaning of being will be born.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The earrings are inspired by an art piece of Monir Farman Farmanian that will make it a special work. according to this, Monir earrings will have a cultural effect on the owner and others. Angles and corners of the earring are making it shinier; It feels like the dance of light and shadow. Monir earrings are not heavy which makes them suitable for daily use.

OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
Durable for daily use, lightweight, minimalistic, suitable for all ages and styles.

PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
The initial idea of the design and inspiration from the Monir began in 2020. Research about Monir's artworks, simulations, and sketches continued until 2021. The production process finished in December 2021. The process from idea to implementation has been done in Tehran.

FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY:

RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
Monir earrings belong to a collection with the name: "EXO". Exo is an abbreviation for Exotic, and we believe that "exotic" is a wonderful description for Monir Farmanfarmaian. She was an astonishing artist with fabulous artistic taste. Around the 1970s, she visited the Shah Cheragh mosque in Shiraz, Iran. With the shrine's high-domed hall ... covered in a tiny square, triangular, and hexagonal mirrors, similar to many other historical Iranian mosques, this event acted as a turning point in Farmanfarmaian's artistic journey, leading to her interest in mirror mosaic artwork.

CHALLENGE:
One of the most difficult parts of this design project was Farmanfarmaian herself! This ring, and actually this collection was a short story of her artworks; Being loyal without interruption in her designs was difficult. Sanding and polishing was the most challenging step of production. Because of the edges and angles, it was too important to be more careful.

PROFILE:
Besides our daily life routines, in between the hardships of work-life, concerns for the future, and grieving the past, let's take a second and have a closer and deeper look at ourselves; "How unique are we"! Just think about it…. How strange it is that these faces and bodies only belong to us. Nobody is alike, and lots of beauty in this world are waiting to be discovered. One day we woke up in the morning detaching ourselves from anything that makes all of us alike; we saw the exquisiteness and oneness of humans and nature; we drew and sketched them because we wanted to immortalize them. The idea of "Ela" started from here… on an eye-opening day in November 2018.
