The objective of this creative project was to see if Pop Surrealism appeals to a larger cross-section of culture and could be integrated into the fine arts. This study involved creating a series of drawings utilizing a wide range of optical and thematic devices to expand my visual vocabulary. The evidence suggests that the visual knowledge of our culture has expanded through mass media. In the 1800's, Stendhal Syndrome affected a cross-section of America. The illness was incurred by overexposure of visual stimuli resulting with the victim vomiting and passing out. The people's adaptation has lessened the syndrome to almost nonexistence. Pop Surrealism is the amalgamation of Pop Art, Surrealism, and cartoons. The drawings were an exploration of visual and technical applications. The study also included a search for the history and acceptance of techniques and media. / Department of Art
