Wtf... There's no narrative or throughline, it's just like... if you distilled "unsettling" and put it on paper.

Well, successful art I guess, it made me feel things...

There's a whole bunch of such surrealist art, and while me being a rather lazy student for most things art history means I have no idea whether there's a better name for it, or how connected the artists behind them are, I still tend to find them rather fascinating.

Also, I'm not saying that surrealist art must necessarily miss a narrative throughline, though it's true here.
