Surrealism Is

"Freud identified a deep layer of the human mind where memories and our most basic instincts are stored. He called this the unconscious, since most of the time we are not aware of it. The aim of Surrealism was to reveal the unconscious and reconcile it with rational life." (As stated by www.tate.org.uk)

Or more simply put something that is surreal is said to have "an oddly dreamlike quality." (As stated by www.dictionary.com)

Well that's what the last few weeks have been - quite surreal.
