In ancient times, beast and man co-existed in the darkness. These photographs tap into our collective ancestral memories.

"I can sense someone's eyes looking at me from somewhere unknown.
So I stop and shine my light into the darkness. It is a deer.
Its presence, standing there, is imposing. The deer is looking over at me. It seems to perceive my fear.
Slowly my anxiety begins to ease and I begin to feel accepted into the nighttime forest."
― from the artist's afterword
