'In Darkness Visible [Verse I, no. 12]' emerges from Hughes' profound meditation on urban nature, created throughout two winters in London. The photograph transforms the cultivated landscape of Hyde Park into a spectral forest of memories, upending the Arcadian scenery to restore a sense of primordial wilderness.

Hughes creates an atmospheric lament for humanity's lost connection to the primaeval forest as a spiritual home through his masterful combination of analogue and digital techniques. The work achieves a remarkable stillness despite the interplay of dark and misty light, reflecting Hughes' quest for tranquillity during significant changes to the natural world.

The artwork showcases Hughes' continuous exploration of the natural world. Influenced by writers such as Thoreau and Seamus Heaney and shaped by his observation of the Chernobyl disaster's impact on North Wales, Hughes' work is a meditation on human experience and the environment. It serves as a poetic portrayal of environmental awareness while celebrating nature's persistent presence in urban environments.
