Surrealistic transformation of a footbridge into an eye that opens to a path that leads to a glowing flower that becomes a body that becomes a landscape, have the effect, in Vanderbeek’s words, of an “experiment in animation in which the eye of the viewer travels deeper and deeper into each scene, finding new relationships and visual metaphors in what appears, at first sight, a simple scene... Juxtaposed with what we see is what we think we saw... The memory of the dream is as real as the dream itself, but it is completely different from the dream."
-Janet Vrchota, Print 1973
