Terrified of Flying?
–
Terrified of Flying? was a sensory exhibition by resident Cross St Studios photographer Jo Galvin and electro-acoustic artist Alex Bennett that explored the sensation of flying—be it in a dream or in life—as a powerful symbol of freedom, comfort and the human desire to overcome societal boundaries.
For Galvin and Bennett, this escape was found through the creative process and the passion to exceed, even when that passion became a "petrifying phenomenon." This exhibition brought together the artists' visual and sonic imagery and was presented in association with the Auckland Festival of Photography.
