How to write about Surrealism using Feldman's model

Feldman's model paper, use Feldman's Model to write a 300 words (or more) paper to examine one the work/image by Oppenheim or Cornell which you have been assigned.

Feldman's model: DESCRIPTION, FORMAL ANALYSIS, INTERPRETATION AND JUDGMENT

Surrealism is an art movement influenced by early psychology and the use of dreams to interpret the sub-conscious (Freud.) The sub-conscious is part of our mind that we do not have conscious (waking)control over. The images we see in dreams are an example of the subconscious at work.

Look at the image as if it were a dream image before you begin to interpret it.

Interpretation and judgment of the artwork should be supported by the description and formal analysis. (Take a stand, support your argument and don't end with a question)
