“No matter how dark this land is, we can make it green again together”
Tragically in 2014 she fell from a rollercoaster and was paralysed from the neck down, including her vocal chords. She could not even speak. Her goals, her passions, everything fell with her and burst like a bubble during the time it takes to fall. Her life changed forever.
She got up from that fall though, she was reborn. The darkest point in her life, turned into the pivotal golden moment.

Art for Good by Negar
She has always been involved in works of charity. She believes in the poem
“Saadi”
“The children of humanity are each others limbs”
“That shares an origin in their creator”
“When one limb passes its days in pain”
“The other limbs can not remain easy”
“You who feel no pain at the suffering of others”
“It is not fitting you be called human
When the earthquake hit Turkey earlier this year she donated paintings where 100% of the funds went to food and first aid packages. She was one of the first artists to respond to the Wolf Society for the Climate & Global Warming Collection. She truly believes in the power of transformative change. You can see from her artwork APPLE that she understand the core of the issue.
APPLE
APPLE — Climate & Global Warming Collection
When we look at APPLE we can see the bee’s have had enough of humans or the “bad apples” that spoil the bunch. The bee’s have trapped us in the honeycomb, representing that the answers we seek are in natural remedies and they are through being sweet to one another. Not through war and destruction. Bees in many cultures indicate there is work to be done. These bees are pointing out that the work to be done is for the humans to do.
Art makes us Invincible
For Negar art in and of itself speaks of the existence of people with different views and concerns. Every artist uses their art as a unique language to communicate the messages most important to them. Negar wants to communicate she is invincible through her art, and when you see her huge body of work it’s impossible to deny that she is.
