The surreal atmosphere that emanates from the photos is obtained after long walks in the forest. It projects us face to face with a paradox: if we end up alone in the middle of a forest, is it better to turn on a light and feel crushed by the density of the vegetation and the chimerical visions of shadows and lights, or is it better to stay in the darkness and fear of what we cannot see? Linda Westin chooses to turn on the light and take us to the heart of a dense forest where solitude plays with our senses. The photographer was inspired by scientific imaging and microscopic fluorescence to create these images, and no doubt the idea is to disrupt our visual and sensory nerve channels. Indeed, when looking at the images it is easy to be torn between the fear of being alone in the middle of nature and the wonder in front of what seems to be a psychotropic hallucination.
