American photographer Arthur Tress when, created his psychoanalytic “Dream Collector” series of images, which captured children’s nightmares in terrifying detail.
Tress explains, “The purpose of these dream photographs is to show how the child’s creative imagination is constantly transforming his existence into magical symbols for unexpressed states of feeling or being. In fact, we are all always interchanging or translating our daily perceptions of reality into the enchanted sphere of the dream world.”
