Pictures of the Lost

1978, 22:58 min, color, silent

Composed in twenty-two movements that coalesce into a haunting psychic journey, the enigmatic Pictures of the Lost evokes states of heightened consciousness, symbolic and ritual gesture, and spiritual transformations. Buckner's dreamlike, rhythmic visions, rendered in saturated hues, create a perceptual tension between abstraction and recognition. Elusive images unfold like silent apparitions.
