About the Item
This surreal Men's Fashion illustration with a dragonfly is staged in an inside/outside setting against dreamlike Rene Magritte clouds. Of particular note is how the artist cropped the head off the background figure as he floats above the floor, while the foreground figure's colorful shirt patterns take flight. McLean's highly inventive ideas add to the mystery and an illusionistic quality of the work.

View AllThe Vision - Surreal Black Female Portrait
Located in Miami, FL
This earlier work depicts an unexpected multicolored cone extending from the subject's eye. It represents a field of vision for a young Haitian female who gazes up. It reminds me of something Man Ray or the Dadaists did. Duval-Carrié's work is more than eye-opening.

Haitian Couple in Bed Simultaneously Adjusting their Radios, Surrealism
By Wilson Bigaud
Located in Miami, FL
Wilson Bigaud is an idea artist in who showcases visual ideas in many of his paintings. In this work, a married Haitian couple tunes their radios in sync as they lie in bed. Bigaud was greatly interested in radios, which appeared in many of his works. This work rises to the level of Surrealism in that Bigaud is doing more than just depicting a normal bedroom moment. There is something very strange and bizarre in the couple's synchronized actions. Also of note, it looks like the woman is swallowing the edge of the radio. Signed lower right in a handmade and hand-painted frame.
