Surrealism is an art and cultural movement that developed in Europe in the aftermath of World War I in which artists aimed to allow the unconscious mind to express itself, often resulting in the depiction of illogical or dreamlike scenes and ideas

i consider this as the movement that lead to absurdism ( the inspiration for my current project), it experimented with ideas and images that broke the norm and allowed artists to express un-conventual thoughts, values and ideas.

surrealism officially gained popularity in Paris in 1924 with the publication of the Manifesto of Surrealism by the poet and critic André Breton (1896–1966), Surrealism became an international intellectual and political movement.
