مریم مومن؛ از یک نقش تا ساختن هویتی مستقل در بازیگری

بعضی نقش‌ها فقط آغاز یک مسیرند؛ فرصتی برای دیده شدن، اما ماندن در این مسیر به چیزی فراتر از دیده شدن نیاز دارد.

مریم مومن، بازیگر جوان سینما و تلویزیون ایران، متولد ۶ مرداد ۱۳۷۷ در اردبیل است. او از کودکی به بازیگری علاقه داشت و فعالیت هنری‌اش را از سنین پایین آغاز کرد؛ اما نقطه عطف زندگی حرفه‌ای‌اش با بازی در نقش فخرالزمان در سریال «بانوی عمارت» رقم خورد؛ نقشی که نامش را بر سر زبان‌ها انداخت و او را به مخاطبان بسیاری معرفی کرد.

پس از آن، مریم مومن در آثار مختلفی از جمله «سرزده»، «جادوگر» و «آزادی مشروط» حضور پیدا کرد و به‌تدریج تجربه‌های تازه‌ای در بازیگری به دست آورد. مسیری که برای یک بازیگر جوان، فرصتی است تا از نخستین تصویر شناخته‌شده‌اش فاصله بگیرد و توانایی‌های متفاوت خود را نشان دهد.

شهرت شاید در یک شب اتفاق بیفتد، اما ساختن یک مسیر ماندگار، زمان می‌خواهد؛ تجربه، انتخاب‌های درست و شجاعت پذیرفتن نقش‌هایی که هرکدام بخشی تازه از توانایی‌های یک هنرمند را آشکار می‌کنند.

چون مهم نیست با کدام نقش شناخته می‌شوی؛ مهم این است که بعد از آن، چه چیزی برای نشان دادن داری.

Скучаю❤️

This crimson clay, and these crimson pots I’ve been making on an extremely small scale haven’t been the easiest objects to get right and I’m still struggling to replicate my first few tests, despite following the recipes I jot down initially.

They also require a very subtlety different approach as with all the added flux in this clay that gives it that vibrant red colour, it also makes it more susceptible to slumping in the kiln if thrown or trimmed too finely. Both of which are traits I normally cherish, which means I’m having to purposefully craft these with a bit more heft in them but even this isn’t fixing the issue entirely and I reckon the blend of clay bodies I’m using needs another, stronger, addition.

The problem is, the more this blend is diluted, the less the red shows in the final product, this means the other, perhaps more straightforward solution is firing them at a lower temperature, which is exactly why I’ve been firing them on the lowest shelf and towards the front of that layer, as typically it always fires a touch cooler. Whereas in my preliminary tests, I fired a collection of these pots all of the kiln and those on the upper shelves definitely showed more signs of movement in their walls.

They didn’t all slump, some just began to bend and sort of lose their shapes, which in some ways can be rather delightful, provided the movement occurs in a way that feels perhaps balanced or aesthetically interesting. But there are times where it looks as if the pot is beginning to melt, or have a stroke, with one specific corner of the vessel slouching.

The whole idea with these pots was to make them with a red clay, coat them with a red glaze and also insert fragments of bronze into the material when it was still soft and malleable, which once fired turn into red blossoms on the surface. Red on red on red.

But I still need some time to perfect things. Perhaps perfect is the wrong word as that isn’t really what I’m looking for in my work, rather I’m looking to find that delicate line where there’s a degree of error in the pots that’s still deemed acceptable.
