Dream

This is a picture of Salvador Dali's famous painting, The Persistence of Memory. Salvador Dali was an important surrealist artists that created distorted landscapes and morphed versions of every day objects. Surrealism reminds me of dreams because like surrealism, dreams consist of every-day objects that we see and people we interact with, but we give them an unreal quality. In dreams, anything can happen and are often given a little twist, and things are not as they seem.

Dream - A sequence of images, emotions, and thoughts passing through a sleeping person's mind. Dreams are notable for their hallucinatory imagery, discontinuities, and incongruities, and for the dreamer's delusional acceptance of the content and later difficulties remembering it.
