Emily's Diorama
I feel strongly about the ocean. It has been a part of my life since I was a little girl. People don't realize how amazing it is and they pollute it like crazy. There are so many unique creatures in the ocean that are being harmed from the trash and it's not fair.

Surrealism
Surrealism
*Cultural movement that began in the 1920s
*Dada activities of World War I
*Centered in Paris
The works feature the element of surprise, unexpected juxtapositions and non sequitur, however many Surrealist artists and writers regard their work as an expression of the philosophical movement first and foremost with the works being an artifact, and leader André Breton was explicit in his assertion that Surrealism was above all a revolutionary movement.
