“Thank god we died together eating a burrito on the bus to Baghdad” is an exhibition opening at the TCB Gallery in Melbourne, on 16 July, and has to have the most eye catching exhibition title I’ve seen this year.

Not surprisingly the theme of exhibition is travel, with 14 artists creating “postcards” using sound, painting, installation, video, photography and illustration, to depict some of their travel experiences.

Travel is often depicted as adventures to new and exotic lands, or that time you got alcohol poisoning and an STI in Brazil. But as Henry Miller once said ‘one’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.’ Such is the way with our travel. It’s not always about where you went and how you got there, but the experiences you have along the way that create both infinitesimal and cataclysmic changes within you.
