This image is part of a series made during an artist residency in early 2018. This period of time was predominantly spent writing, conducting research and testing suitable methodologies as part of an ongoing series of personal work. This image was made while taking time away from research and seeking solitude and respite in the surrounding area. The nearby pine forest acted as a suitable environment to experiment with thoughts on the unknown, emotional charges and their traces and the manifestation of fear. By navigating this unfamiliar, dimly lit territory, an abstract space was created within which contemplation and emotionally led avenues could begin to unfold.
