Biography

Robert Fulton was a professional pilot and aerial cinematographer in addition to making his own documentary and experimental films. Filming in the United States, the Andes, Nepal, Africa, and elsewhere, Fulton often combined places and images to create dream-like flows of thoughts and associations. The exquisite kinetic rhythms of his camera movements and his editing, as well as his use of superimpositions, create lyrical and breathtaking visions with Fulton’s travelling camera embodying both internal and external journeys.
