ARTIST STATEMENT
Nazir as of native of Hunza grew in a house surrounded by nature. Later when he moved to Karachi he went through a major transition from an natural life to brick boxes. He still feels as a crossroad between mother nature and this concrete jungle.
He believes that everything that grows around us and all we manducate becomes a part of us. We are a mere extension of what we use, even our digital gadgets. We are transforming into a product that we use. His work evokes concerns that may become difficult to differentiate a man from his objects. He merges the two together in exaggerated forms to put in view this evolving phenomenon.
