Salvador Dalí was a surrealist artist known for his unique and bizarre works that combined everyday objects in impossible ways meant to depict dreams and the subconscious mind. One of his most famous paintings, Persistence of Memory, from 1931, depicts melting clocks in a desert landscape, combining soft, rounded shapes with the subjectivity of time to give viewers a sense of the dreamlike nature of memories and how they persist beyond objective measures of time. Dalí sought to surprise viewers and illustrate the unbounded imagination of the mind through unusual juxtapositions that could not exist in reality.

supernatural that is present also.

Process Of Memory Essay
The document discusses the process of memory storage and retrieval in psychology. It explains that memory involves encoding information from the senses, storing it over time, and later retrieving the stored information. There are three main stages - encoding, storage, and retrieval. Encoding involves processing external stimuli. Storage involves saving details over periods of time. Retrieval involves locating and accessing stored information. There are three types of memory processing: encoding and registration, storage, and retrieval. Sensory memory allows brief retention of sensory impressions.
