DALIMA
DALIMA, continuing the work of the great genius of the last century, Salvador Dali, draws attention to the important philosophical aspects of surrealism and its impact on the perception and understanding of the World. Her paintings, distinguished by an unbridled flight of fantasy, brought her to a new stage in the development of Surrealism. Despite the phantasmagoric, distorted manner of presenting expression, for some reason her paintings are quite familiar to everyone, they are able to touch, melt or excite any heart. In her paintings, she brings out a hidden image from the subconscious. It combines seemingly completely incompatible things, destroys the laws of nature and physics. Monstrous images of chaos, paradoxical shifts of meaning, embodying the “sleep of reason”, express the “madness” of this world under general anesthesia for mind control.
To get rid of “mind control”, you need to come to a clear consciousness. “Spell-like” power, as is known, manifests itself during prolonged observation of flames, the movement of clouds, etc. “Waking dreams” can be called a kind of “training.” During such “daydreams” a subtle game takes place. Random and unconscious semantic combinations appear. The purpose of these games is to train consciousness and logical relationships. Thus, a deep unconscious, chaotic force was called up from the abyss. One of the foundations of surrealism is the method by which dreams were recorded or sketched immediately at the untimely moment of awakening. This psychoanalytic study of spoken thoughts leads to unique combinations and semantic associations that are not subject to the logic of consciousness. This method is called analysis of spoken thoughts. And precisely because the monologue is fast, the consciousness does not have time to make any judgment.
Surrealism, embodied in DALIMA's paintings, is a means of exploring the subconscious and unconscious processes. Her works have a direct impact and the ability to emotionally touch the viewer, allowing him to look beyond the boundaries of conventional perception, illustrating the boundless flow of fantasy, where seemingly incompatible elements meet, where one can sense the presence of a “sleep of the mind” penetrating through various layers of consciousness and the unconscious.
Extraordinary scenes and images that may seem incredible in real life are calmly perceived in the context of surrealism. This confirms the truth that Salvador Dali expressed that surrealism penetrates the horizon of ordinary understanding and expands our boundaries of perception.
Thus, the work of DALIMA, taking into account the influence and legacy of Salvador Dali, testifies to the importance of surrealism not only as a philosophical and artistic concept, but also the very Life of an individual immersed in a game called Life. It calls us to penetrate the world of frozen dreams, in which there is no place for rational restrictions, thereby freely showing the flow of unbridled imagination, living its paint on the canvas of Life.
