Sanctus

Hammer's evocative, poetic meditation on the fragility of the body and the sanctity of life is composed of re-photographed medical moving x-ray footage originally shot by Dr. James Sibley Watson, Jr. and others in the 1950's. Humanity's life-sustaining processes are imbued with spirituality as multiple colorized skeletons perform a variety of tasks accompanied by Neil B. Rolnick's original choral composition.
