ENCHANTMENT(S) is an experimentation that works to close the gap between romanticized representations of the forest as seen in the genres of folklore, mythology and fantasy, and what we can experience in reality. For Terrence, forests are already inherently fantastical, surreal, and metaphysical, as there is an incredible overlapping of literal and aesthetic relationships that make up these complex microclimates.

In contrast to traditional landscape photography that is often characterized by viewpoints that provide grandiose vistas, Terrence utilized a practice that was focused on slowing down and sitting with the dark and quiet moments underneath the tree canopy.

ENCHANTMENT(S) was created during a two week artist-in-residence program at the Ou Gallery, British Columbia.
