LOST PINES
For my money, Barry is – for a few years running now – the maker pushing the most fruitfully against the formal constraints of the photobook. But it’s always in service of the work, rather than design or production for its own sake. Lost Pines is an apparently impenetrable object that somehow manages to invite one into the claustrophobic confusion that follows a family tragedy. It’s a real accomplishment. - Tim Carpenter, Books of 2022 Photobook Store
In 2002, photographer Barry Stone’s grandfather’s trailer was engulfed in a tragic fire. Lost Pines combines Stone’s haunting images of the destroyed trailer with pictures he made of the aftermath of the 2011 Bastrop County Complex Fire over the course of a decade. Eight full-color pull-out posters reproduce Stone’s grandfather’s recovered Polaroids, which are nested between dark, black-and-white landscapes, revealing the human element of personal loss within an ecological disaster. A small, intimate book within a book depicts his grandfather’s darkened and distorted trailer. These diverse pictorial elements create an intricate puzzle that contemplates loss, memory, and healing.
