[1] Lost in the Wilderness (2015) revisits the scene of the Wounded Knee Massacre, where in 1890, the United States Army killed nearly three hundred Lakota people.
Sean O'Hagan, reviewing the book in The Guardian, wrote that "Lost in the Wilderness moves between the intimate and the subtlety [sic] symbolic.
It captures the reality of life on the reservations – the flat, barren land, drab rooms, careworn faces – as well as some moments of dark irony".
The disparate objects and scenes, shot in both black-and-white and colour, are "emotional resonances" for Lathigra given he could have lived in Mumbai had his family not migrated.
[4] The photographs are punctuated with translated extracts from the writings of India's Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore, and poems by Lathigra.
