While the primary focus of surrealism in it's original context is to promote positivity and explore optimistic outlooks on life, it has evolved with modern audiences and philosophies into a practice of accessing the unconscious mind, and visualizing the abstracts of the human mind. In many ways, one may consider it as the study of the brain, but in a more expressionistic form. One of the best demonstrations of this phenomenon is the piece Object (1936), created by Meret Oppenheim. To display a sculpture as barquoe as a teacup and saucer, with the insited matted with animal fur, only testifies to the fact that Surrealism encourages an unapologetic, unhinged expression of an indivifual's true thoughts.
