Surrealism: What it is and How to Use it in Your Art

We are once again going to explore an art movement, called Surrealism, that has impacted all of the art today that we see. We have visited several others, and you can find those here  and here but today, I want to dive into a topic that fascinates many of us in the art world: surrealism. It’s a movement that challenges our perceptions and encourages us to explore the depths of our imagination.…

after watching several povs, there's something so striking about the way mumbo died.

he dies at home, first of all, which is notable in its own right because so much of his time was spent running about, usually in pursuit of kills. he dies with grian, too— to a thing grian created, no less, but it isn't actually grian's fault for once.

mumbo dies in that tall tower and when lightning strikes, from all across the server, everyone looks. their eyes land on that tower, and everyone is watching. even in grian's perspective, you can see everyone at renwood mound, lined up and staring. those at the bamlands looked on too.

they didn't see mumbo die, but they saw grian's grief. grian, who, throughout this season, has seemed cruel and untouchable to those outside of his circle due to his involvement with and knowledge of the wild cards. they watch grian immediately crumble under the weight of mumbo's death; several of them even explicitly comment, "look at grian, he's grieving, he's in mourning."

i like to think that, until that moment, grian was almost god-like in their minds; now, though, he's the quintessential concept of humanity. grief can be religious if you do it right, after all. even beyond the grian aspect though, isn't this just the most despairing omen of what's to come?

i mean, there's something about this image of a man fallen from grace, crying out as he holds the mangled corpse of his friend in the home they made together, high in the sky, on display for all the world to bear witness to. and the world did bear witness, be it with pity, horror, joy... it doesn't matter, because they saw.

the canary curse has been broken, but this was a fittingly foreboding, tone-setting image that did a stunning job filling its shoes

Plato on Art as Imitation

Plato’s Allegory of the Cave – Alex Gendler Mimesis in Ancient Greek Philosophy The word “Mimesis” comes from Greek and means “imitation.” Plato and Aristotle talked about mimesis as the representation of nature. The root word is ‘mimos’; from this, we get mimesthia, mimesis, mimetes, mimetikos, and mimema. Mimesthia means imitation, representation, or portrayal; mimos and mimetes are the…

"Go to hell" is basic. "Hope your favourite anime movie sequel gets cancelled after seven years in production AND getting an animated teaser." is smart. It's possible. It's terrifying. It's happened.
