The excessive, often irrational fear of forests at night or dark wooded
areas is referred to as Nyctohylophobia. This concept of fear and
isolation can be alleviated by using light and colour. The methodology
used here is an attempt to push to boundaries of accepted photographic
landscape practice and to step outside the cliché and the common
postcard imagery. The aim was to create strange, surreal, dreamlike
images, that one could describe as mindscapes. The locations were
chosen specifically, for the lack of nocturnal light and general activity.
