Tehran changes. Almost one century has passed after a phenomenon that is called ‘Modernisation’ in Iran. After which Tehran, as the last capital city of the Iran dynasties, became the place to represent the exterior of this movement. The Metamorphosis of Tehran, especially in the past few centuries, has been overshadowed by the phenomenon of massive changes through elimination. Eradication of names, memories and many other things which are ironically easily accessible through references. Tehran is used to constant transformation. Processes of elimination change from being decades long to time spans of just months. This body has been duplicated in many ways, has been defaced many times over and over, and has eventually not forgotten but has deleted its own life experience.

North, where that mountain is located, windows wish to open to that mountain. Its body has been intertwined with Tehran’s glands. From the time when the mountain lost its connection to the water springs, the mountain’s sweat flowed to the sewage. Its direction has changed. They want to climb this mountain which hosts snow spots just for a few months.
