Design Movement Assignment

For university, we are being given an assignment relating to a design movement of our own choice. For this assignment i have decided to go with the Surrealism design movement for a couple of reasons. Firstly i love the idea of creating art and design based on the workings of the subconscious and the idea of creating a 'dream world' where artists often painted what they saw in their dreams. One of the key artists in the surrealist design movement was a man named Salvador Dalí. Salvador Dalí is responsible for some of the most famous piece of surrealist art and is a personal favourite artist of mine, I like the way his work seemed 'out of this world' and was nothing anyone had ever seen.
