Many surrealist that came from the nonsensical Dada art movement tried to explore their minds in different states of unconscious and alternate realities; be it childhood memories, dreams or in a hypnotic trance while creating..
Which frankly made for some kick ass fantastically weird art...
The magic of creating for myself is defined, by having your mind open to every aspect you are feeling at that very moment. Letting your unconsciousness being the fluidity of the process- every artist I believe knows what I'm talking about- it's "the zone".
Creation... It's powerful sensation when happening; and has been an alluring mystery to many neurologists.
Below are two of my favorite works by Max Ernest- a "grow house" of concepts in visual arts and poetry. His work later influenced the abstract expressionism movement. (Rothko, Pollock)
Footnote* Ernest was married to Dorothea Tanning, her painting I've kept on my "random interesting things page" I love the image of her walking bravely bare chested through the doors of perception with a kelp skirt. (Of course theres more reasons why I love that particular painting... However, will not divulge!)
