Artistrealism of surrealist possibilities can be misunderstood by a surrealist gone astray and off the skies enough where the flight of the reality is back into a crisis of the middle of the surrealist insides existence oil on canvas Méret Oppenheim
A surreal oil painting depicting a fair-skinned woman, with red cheeks and light brown hair tied in a bun, floating horizontally in a bright blue cloudy sky. Her body is cracked and broken in places, revealing an intricate inner world. The broken parts of her body reveal a dark, starry night sky with planets, an old house, abstract shapes, clocks, and various objects including a melting, dripping, golden substance. A red cube hangs by a string connected to her upper left arm, and a brass bell is suspended by a string from below her left arm. Parts of her torso and arms are made of a light brown and beige, cracked, textured material. Her feet are made of a light-brown flesh-like material. In the background, in the upper right, there is a golden pocket watch, and another silver pocket watch is visible in the upper left. The painting has a fractured, mosaic-like quality, with shards of light blue sky, dark blue sky, and clouds creating fragmented borders around the figure and its inner mechanisms. The style is reminiscent of Salvador Dali and Rene Magritte.
