Dream Machines - Camden Art Centre

Dreams, hallucinations, spirituality and psychological extremes are a source of inspiration for many artists.

Dream Machines, selected by artist Susan Hiller, was an international exhibition of work by artists from the 1920s to the present day, which focused on altered states of consciousness and the transformative power of art. For the exhibition she drew together painting, drawing, photography, video, film, sound-based work and installations that explore and induce states of transcendence and reverie.
