In a dreamlike ink-and-collage landscape, a diverse group of young people walks in silent procession through a faded, surreal world. Each figure wears a surreal crown sculpted from a personal symbol: one has hair shaped like swirling ice cream, another wears a river, a third holds a paper bird nest in place of hair. The background is layered with handwritten fragments, pressed flowers, cut-up maps, and torn diary pages. Their skin tones, features, and garments reflect cultural variety, but the mood is unified — introspective, proud, poetic. The scene is drawn in expressive black ink and collage textures, with floating calligraphic shapes and muted tones. Inspired by David Mack’s narrative layering and Toyen’s dreamlike space, the image suggests they are on a quiet journey to reclaim imagination as identity.
Each soul holds a flame,
Different fires light the path—
We rise in echoes.
In a row of grayscale figures, surreal dreamscapes unfurl from their heads—flowers, clouds, symbols—while ghostly faces drift above in a collage of textures, maps, and letters. The piece becomes a manifesto: diversity is not deviation but the source of collective human brilliance.
Artistic Statement:
This work draws from David Mack’s layered visual storytelling and Toyen’s surreal dream logic to explore identity through internal vision. The narrative collage approach affirms diversity as poetic structure—each figure a personal myth, each dreamscape an irreducible truth within shared space.
Influencing Artists: David Mack, Toyen
