Art Installations & Exhibitions
Art is an important tool for expression, learning, therapy and healing. At NRP, we use our artistic skills to interact, inspire and promote holistic well being. Scientific studies tell us that art heals by changing a person’s physiology and attitude; due to the body physiology changing from one of stress to one of deep relaxation, from one of fear to one of creativity and inspiration. Our art installations are more than visual displays; they are the art of storytelling; because they combine different mediums, encouraging deep listening.

Consequently, her books and performances are powerful, intimate collections of poems, prose and artwork, that have a transformative effect. As a result of being an interdisciplinary artist; her practice is comprised of the exploration of the contrasting yet interconnected elements of:- light, projection, sound and movement to transform and connect people and spaces; therefore Naz is able to use poetry to deliver messages across all levels of awareness.
