Nyctophobia is the extreme fear of night and darkness. This project is an audio visual intervention into the architectural remains of Fort Balance. The immersive experience recalls the anxiousness and fear associated with the Russian scare of the 1980’s, horror films, folklore and paintings. Fear of the unknown and the paranoia of surveillance practices is utilized to create site specific installations in the gun pits, observation posts and barracks.
