LECTURES
DIGITAL SURREALISM
1.Realism Versus Surrealism
Realism:
Takes subject matters of the ordinary and common world which we call
"reality." It almost always takes a non-exotic and non-extraordinary
subject matter and theme.
Surrealism:
A twist on Realism. It explores the subconscious mind, with subject
matters concentrating on dream-images and often aims to distort the
ordinary and what we call reality

2. Surrealism
- Surrealism defies logic. Dreams and the workings of the subconscious mind inspire surrealistic art filled with strange images and bizarre juxtapositions.
- Fueled by the teachings of Freud and the rebellious work of Dada artists, surrealists like Salvador Dalí promoted free association and dream imagery.

3.Dadaism
- An anti war art movement with art works that is satirical and nonsensical in nature.
- Salvador Dalí was a Spanish Surrealist painter and printmaker known for exploring subconscious imagery.
What is Digital Surrealism
Surrealism is a cultural movement focused on type of arts to express about the artist’s idea themselves.
How to start creating Surrealism artworks?
- Dream-like scenes and symbolic images
- Unexpected, illogical juxtapositions
- Bizarre assemblages of ordinary objects
- Primitive or child-like designs
Capturing your Dream
- Sketch It Out: Take a piece of paper and pen/pencil or a tablet and start to sketch. Draw your vision out roughly. Don't finesse any details yet, but just lay out key points of your vision.
- Find Reference Images : Gathering reference images will help you greatly in realizing your new idea. Gather images that directly relate to what you have in mind.
Mindset During Creation
- "Does this look real?":Surrealism is at its best when it's convincing enough that it could be real, however we obviously know that the subject matter you are creating is nonexistent, thus is not real.
- Make it happen to the best of your ability .
INSTRUCTIONS
POSTER DESIGN
Regarding equality, I want to express that professional gender equality
and women can have the same workplace as men Based on this idea, I started
my sketch.

I referenced these two pictures

During the process, Mr Hamzah advised me to leave space between the border
and the font.

FEEDBACK:
During the design process, I applied what I had learnt in my previous classes
and also learnt about Photoshop and Adobeillustration.
REFLECTION：
In this lesson we used the equality theme to create posters and the teacher eventually chose my first poster, which reinforced my knowledge about Photoshop!
