This work is about seeking comfort in the natural world and finding a curious resonance with the darker aspects of nature. It’s about developing the skill to see through other’s shiny exterior and trusting the need to create self-protection and calm. It explores the safety of withdrawing into an interior world when the exterior environment feels chaotic and demanding.
