Phobophobia
Summary
Phobophobia is a series of photographs taken in a quaint and cozy tourist retreat at night. They illustrates how the ominous, when combined with the ambiguous can together create a feedback loop of fear and conspiracy. A quirk of our minds that we must be conscious of. Especially as we are rushing into a future where information that scares us is in abundance and our attention spans are shortening passed the point of self awareness.
Phobophobia
We never truly grow out of our fear of the dark. Being cautious of the unknown is a reasonable response. It is when the fear of the unseen runs unchecked we become both victim and oppressor to our own conspiracies. Fear heightens our senses, shortens our reaction time, and accelerates our faculties that detect patterns. Feats our mind achieves at the cost of self regulation, casting aside any healthy dose of self skepticism. Phobophobia is a series of photographs taken in a quaint and cozy tourist retreat at night.
