'It was written I Should be Loyal to the Nightmares of my Choice' is from the series Narratives of Location. A location in Bermondsey, an underground carpark in railway arches, revealed a cathedral structure with an immediate unique resonance, and inspired further exploration. A quote form Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness triggered the title, at a time of daily nightmares.
