Surrealistic Collage

Collage - a technique of composing a work of art by gluing various materials (like

magazine images, newspaper bits, photo scraps, colored paper, fabric scraps, etc.) on

a single surface not normally associated with one another in multiple layers.

Surrealism - a 20th-century art movement in which artists sought to release the creative

potential of the unconscious mind, for example by the irrational juxtaposition of images or events in strange or dreamlike

ways.
