Imagination is a powerful tool to see things out of the ordinary. In this installation, Naz tries to reproduce the same moment that of boredom, that you free your mind and entertain yourself through imagination.

" I was lying down on the train from Vienna towards Paris, and as you guessed it, it was the longest i've experience on a train. It was new as well as boring for me not knowing how far the destination is, i stared upwards to make myself fall asleep to past the time faster, as i looked pass the passing electric wires outside, the reflection of the lights from the train became my constant fixed point where the outside sky kept moving slowly. It felt as like a dream or a trance as i was plugged in my music and the images tarted to shift and change.. It was an enjoyable ride in the end "

Trying to break out from the inescapable situation physically, Naz manisfested his own space, a space of imagination. The human mind as he realised from this experience is that it finds a way to recover or solve a problem.
