In 'Dark Trees' the cameras focus shifts, to the more intimate enclosed space of the forest. An equally disorientating natural space with as few points of reference as a featureless sea or sky. The feeling of being enclosed is enhanced by the blurring of detail into pure colour and form. This absence of a clear subject leaves the viewer feeling disorientated, highlighting the act of observing and the nature of visual representation. The attention of the viewer is shifted from object to their own perceptual process in relation to object, again disrupting the distance between the observer and the site of optical experience

''what is meant by the immensity of the forest. For this immensity orginates in a body of impressions which, in reality, have little connection with geographical information. We do not have to be long in the woods to experience the always rather anxious impression of going deeper and deeper into this limitless world.'. Gaston Bachelard 'The Poetics of Space’
