Often passed by with indifference in daytime, these trees take on a mysterious presence at night. The long exposures allow for the play of light to ‘perform’ on the negatives, recording subtle transformations of time and space.

Trees feature strongly in mythology, reflecting strong cultural relationships with the environment.

Adding to the mystery, the performance and exploration of dark and light continues in the darkroom.
