Goldman's Surrealist Dream Art


Photographer Ronen Goldman has been undertaking a unique art project: recreating specific scenes from his dreams as surrealist photographs. He has named this project "Surrealist Pillow," and currently has nearly thirty photographs finished and posted on his website: www.ronengoldman.com. All of the photographs are specially designed, using unique and interesting special effects to capture the magical properties of dreams. These effects often include making inanimate objects float, such as cards, fish, and apples (which appears to be a recurring theme), but some of the more impressive photos include people with fishbowl heads and impossible stairways that appear to draw inspiration from the painting “Relativity” by surrealist artist M. C. Escher. Goldman uses advanced cinematography and unique light contrasts to bring out the bizarre unreality in most of his photos. A few of his more popular photographs are available for purchase as fine prints on his Etsy.
