In the 1960s New York photographer Arthur Tress spoke with children about their dreams—often nightmares that involved falling, monsters, that buried alive scenario—and would then photograph them experiencing it in a safe, staged setting. This series combined his interests in ritual ceremony, Jungian archetypes and social allegory.
