What is a Dreamscape?

A dreamscape is an artistic depiction of dream environments-landscapes and spaces that follow dream logic rather than physical reality. Dreamscapes typically feature impossible architectures, distorted perspectives, unexpected juxtapositions, and atmospheric qualities suggesting the unconscious mind. Surrealist painters like Salvador Dali, Yves Tanguy, and contemporary Dark Art practitioners excel at creating immersive dreamscapes. These environments often feature vast empty spaces, melting or morphing forms, and a sense of timelessness. Dreamscapes can evoke the sublime, the uncanny, or profound mystery. Contemporary artists create dreamscapes through painting, digital art, and AI-generated imagery.
