Forest

For me this image seems to evoke the sense of pervading anxiety now surrounding our lives. The palpable impression of imminent danger, right on our doorstep and even within our homes. The idea of nature as an unstoppable force that cannot be reasoned with, and from which there is no escape. Nature and culture collapsing into one another. The structures we build to protect us giving way to a creeping, encroaching threat, ever present, but elusive. The sense of reality shifting around us as we breathe.
