Surrealism is an art form that uses the element of surprise or juxtaposes the unexpected to create a provocative work. It originated in the 1920s after the First World War. Max Ernst, Salvidor Dali, Rene Magritte are just a few of the artist who created surrealistic art.
This composition is a proud peacock made from lamps, luminaires and decorative windows. The body is Louis Poulson's Artichoke Lamp. The tail feathers are an Art Nouveau window from a house is Nancy France and a repetition of an Arts and Crafts sconce. The legs and neck are a desk lamp. The face is an Edison bulb and the plume on the 'head' are fiber optic fibers.
