Many surrealist artists have used images or automatic writing to unlock ideas and images from their unconscious minds. Other people want to describe the world of dreams or hidden psychological tension. Surrealist artists have also attracted inspiration from mysticism, ancient culture and original arts and knowledge as a way to imagine alternative reality.
