I create art. Art creates me. ♾️

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Today, completely by chance, I came across this video from December 18, 2020, and felt like sharing it.

Back then, I used to record these quiet moments of painting just for myself. I never imagined sharing them with anyone. I was simply capturing moments that belonged to me.

It was 1 AM in Berlin. The poetry of Sohrab Sepehri was playing in the background, and I was sitting in front of a canvas, overwhelmed with emotions.

No plan. No expectations. Just me, the poetry, and colors.

I had no idea what I was creating. Somehow, the painting seemed to come to life on its own.

At that time, I was somewhere between two chapters of my life, slowly discovering a part of myself I had never truly explored.

I wasn’t trying to become an artist. I was simply painting because something inside me needed to be expressed.

I didn’t know that these late nights would turn into years of creating, that hundreds of paintings would follow, or that art would eventually become my entire world.

What began as a quiet escape from everyday life slowly became a new way of living, seeing, feeling, and understanding myself.

Art became my language, my freedom, and an important part of my healing.

Looking back almost six years later, I feel so much love for the woman who sat in front of that canvas, unaware of the journey she had just begun.

I thought I was simply creating paintings.
But somewhere along the way, art was recreating me.

And perhaps that’s the magic of creating. You don’t need to know where it will lead. You don’t need perfection. You just need to allow yourself to begin.

There is an artist within every one of us.
And perhaps, that inner artist is also our inner healer.

Six years later, the emotions are still flowing, the paintings are still being born, and I’m still becoming.

With love,
Belvoo ♡

🍐✨ My Chapter 40 As Sweet, Juicy & Delicious as the Sweetest Pear I’ve Ever Tasted.

I never imagined 40 could feel this beautiful.

Maybe life really does get more magical as we grow older.
Maybe the most beautiful chapters are the ones we never saw coming.
And maybe some things are simply meant to find us at exactly the right moment.

This birthday felt different.
A little more magical, a little more intimate… almost like a beautiful secret the universe had been keeping for me.

So much love, so many unexpected moments, and feelings that words could never fully capture.

And perhaps even the sweetest chapters become sweeter when the right soul is walking beside you. 🤍

Some magic is meant to be seen.
Some is meant to be felt.
And some quietly changes your whole world without ever needing to be explained.

40, you surprised me in the most beautiful way.

Feeling deeply loved, endlessly grateful, and incredibly blessed.

And somehow, I have a feeling the most beautiful part of my story is only just beginning.

Some things are written in the stars… and some are written quietly in the heart. ♾️✨

⁨ ⁨ ⁨ این روزها چقدر یکصدا ، صدای وطن شدیم
خیلی ها دیدنمون و شنیدنمون و خیلی ها نخواستن

احساس میکنم از یه جایی به بعد سکوت لازمه
شاید یک راهپیمایی در سکوت
راهپیمایی جهانی برای ایران

سکوت صداش خیلی بلنده
مثل صدای برف⁩ by @maryprad

a very clear vision.
Iran is going to become incredibly beautiful, very soon.
Like a flower opening into full bloom.
It doesn’t matter who supports it and who doesn’t.
This has already happened.

⁨ ⁨ ⁨ ⁨ ⁨ اولین روز ۲۰۲۶
سر زدم به جاهایی که دیگه انگار تکه‌هایی از منن.
به چند نقطه از طبیعت این شهر که سال‌هاست شاهد شادی‌هام و غم‌هامن.

دریاچه‌ها و درخت‌هایی که بارها و بارها باهاشون خاطره ساختم،
و امروز اینو فهمیدم که چقدر دوستی من با این مکان‌ها عمیقه.

کنار دوست‌های خوب زندگیم،
با یه لیوان شراب داغ و سیب‌زمینی سرخ‌کرده لب دریاچه،
یه حس ساده و عمیق داشتم
اینکه رفیق خیلی خوبی برای خودمم…
و این چقدر شیرینه.

و آخرش، کنار بابی
گرمای خونه و زندگیم
با تمام قلبم ، وجودم سپاسگزار داشتن تمام دوست‌های بی‌نظیر زندگیم شدم.
همه آدم ها ، مکان ها و موجوداتی که این زندگی رو تبدیل به یک سمفونی بی تکرار کردن
۲۰۲۶ مبارک برای همه دنیا⁩⁩⁩⁩⁩ by @maryprad

⁨ ⁨ امروز صبح برف قشنگی بارید.
همه‌جا سفید شد.

من پشت میز کارم نشسته بودم،
نور زرد، گرمای خونه،
و لذت کار کردن در سکوت.

تا اینکه صدای بلند مردی
این آرامش رو شکست.

حتی بابی با کنجکاوی رفت روی برج دیدبانیش.

صدا بلندتر شد.
دیگه نتونستم تمرکز کنم.
رفتم پشت پنجره.

دیدم مردی خیلی عصبانی جلوی در خونه‌ی ما
با کسی دعوا می‌کنه.

ناخودآگاه رفتم روی تراس.
زن جوان و زیبایی اون‌جا بود
که داشت برف‌های جلوی خونه رو پارو می‌کرد
و مرد با داد و بیداد می‌گفت:
این‌جوری نه، اون‌جوری.

بی‌اختیار داد زدم:
داد نزن! درست باهاش صحبت کن.

سکوت کرد.
نگاهم کرد.
گفت: به تو چه، زنمه

و من، بدون فکر، گفتم:
Arschloch.

پشیمون نبودم.

دلم می‌خواست بهش بگم:
اون زن محتاج احترام تو نیست،
اما تو محتاج یاد گرفتنی.

با صدای بلندت کسی از پا درنمیاد،
اما داری بازی خطرناکی رو ادامه می‌دی.

شاید تازه از دنیایی مردمحور اومدی این‌جا،
اما
داد زدن دیگه قدرت نیست.

چند وقت دیگه
تو می‌مونی و تنهاییت.

با این اتفاق یک لحظه افسوس خوردم
برای مردهایی
که می‌تونستن
به‌جای قلدری، مهربون باشن
و به‌جای تنهایی ناخواسته‌شون
زندگی رویاییشون رو تجربه کنن.

برگشتم خونه
و اشکام بی‌ اختیار سرازیر شد.

نه برای اون زن،
بلکه برای ناآگاهی اون مرد.

برای اتفاقی
که برای خیلی از مردهای دنیا افتاده.

برای فراموش شدن نقش واقعی و این همه پیچیدگی که در پی اش اومده …

ولی خب … اینم شاید قسمتی ست از روند تکامل بشر و لازم

خدا داند !⁩⁩

میدونم که دنیا دیگه نه ظالم میخواد نه مظلوم

هر دو طرف باید به نقطه تعادل برسن

و راهش آسون‌ نیست by @maryprad
