Amber Woodlands

In the Amber Woodlands, I delve into the intriguing themes presented in Mark Fisher's "The Weird and the Eerie." This piece serves as an exploration of the uncanny, where the familiar becomes unsettling and strange, provoking a sense of disquietude in the viewer. The colours chosen for this work are not merely aesthetic; they embody unseen energies and a spiritual essence that lingers just beneath the surface, inviting the audience to engage with the profound mysteries that exist within our surroundings.

The woodlands, often perceived as serene and inviting, become a source of excitement and curiosity for me. I ponder the duality of their beauty and mystery, questioning what lies beyond the visible and the known. This contemplation informs the spatial dynamics of the piece: the scale and the manner in which the materials freely hang evoke an immersive experience, as if one could traverse into these enigmatic woodlands. The movement of the hanging elements mimics the sway of trees, creating a dialogue between the viewer and the artwork, encouraging exploration and connection with nature's unseen rhythms.

Ultimately, this piece is an invitation to embrace the eeriness of the familiar, to explore the depths of our curiosity, and to resonate with the sublime energies that dwell in the spaces we often take for granted.
