Shaped by man and manipulated by nature. The raw materials of our constructed environments. The mesmeric presence of a moonlike underworld landscape, completely absent of light, is explored. From mining, to WW2 munitions storage the hollow space lays abandoned, its transformation now interminable. Entered from a private hillside in Caumont, France the transition from light to dark is a visceral distilling experience. The empty voids of negative space step in front of building-sized rocks and distort perceptions and heighten awareness. A series of images are presented from within the depths.
