The Forest Series is an exploration through a primal landscape to find myself. It alludes to feelings of being ‘lost in the woods’. Forests are embedded in our collective unconscious, being mentioned as dark places of passage in stories going back millennia. Abandoning the well-worn path, I head deeper into the psychic landscape, with a determination to find my own way. Trekking through a dense forest I hear unrecognisable sounds, feel the presence of other creatures. There are hidden dangers and obstacles. The destination is concealed. Walking the path requires vigilance and action, with no choice but to be present in the moment.
