About Surrealism (Dalí / Magritte)

Surrealism is the art of the impossible made real — melting clocks on desert horizons, bowler hats floating in twilight, impossible staircases rendered with classical oil-painting precision. Born of André Breton's 1924 Manifesto, it argued that the imaginary tends to become real.

This system channels Dalí's infinite dream-skies and Magritte's uncanny juxtapositions through twilight-blue surfaces, desert-sand accents, old-gold ornament, and serif typography. The surface is always painterly, never digital; the tone uncanny, never cheerful.
