Surrealism Tattoos, is a style still in development and it is still to be discovered by a lot of tattoo fans, I do like surrealism, simply for the fact that is a mix of realism and things that are not real, almost like fantasy, surreal, however there is a taste of realism in the image. So it is basically a mix of something imaginable and unimaginable.
Surrealism is an artistic and a movement, that began in the early 1920’s. It is focus as an expression of the unconscious mind by combining dreamlike, irrational and unexpected elements that are not commonly real.
Surrealism is a mix of Realism with what’s not real. Surrealism is a mix of Realism with a dream.
Surrealists believe that dreams are a deeper truth than our conscious understanding, the movement was officially started by Andre Breton, who published the Surrealist Manifesto in 1924, inspired by psychological theories.
Some key points of surrealism art includes:
Dreamlike images, and unexpected combination of objects.
Symbolism that encourages different interpretations
A mix of Subconscious intuition and imagination rather than logic.
So those are a few examples of what surrealism art is, so you can get your mind exited with ideas, as there is no limits on how you can create, that is one of the aspects I do love about surrealism art, is unbelievably free and there is no limits to your imagination. You can distort your mind in a safe way, and not to worry about the outcome.
Maybe surrealism is what is in other dimensions, is the distortion of what we believe to be true, and it brings forth what we dare to believe. It is a safe place to express ourselves without being judged, its somewhere where there’s no right or wrong, good or bad, its just pure expression of art. Rules in my point of view, deviate the artist from the freedom of art, and limit the artist to its full potential, when you follow rules as an artist you become kind of a robot, and true artists are far from being robots, they receive ideas from the divine, and translate their feelings, intuitions and perception in to a piece of art. In order to receive creative ideas from the divine, you must be in peace within, peace within is the new kind of wealth people are looking for, instead of money kind of wealth.
In this piece of art I worked on, I incorporated elements of my own mind, letting my imagination be free, without any limits or judgements. That’s the best way to approach an art idea, and the development happens freely. I made this Charcoal and graphite drawing, in our Tattoo shop in Greater Manchester, I worked on it every free time I had after tattooing full time, usually I draw at night before I go to bed, its usually the last thing I do before I go to bed. In the morning usually, I go for a walk, exercise and read, as my brain is fresh in the morning, it is good to obtain information.
