Precedent for concept 3


Salvidor Dali's work was created around the surrealist movement and throughout these paintings displayed above I noticed a common thread when it came to saturations and hues. The yellow tinges that are present throughout his works founded the inspiration for my first concept.

These hues are often reminiscent of sand and are sometimes potrayed as sand within the painting and for this reason I have taken sand as an inspiration for my first frame. 



However throughout the paintings this 'sand' or object which can be compared to sand, is often stretched or morphed into a melted state. Therefore I related this to sand which is struck by lightning, creating 'fulgurites' where the sand is melted and takes a new structure.
