Visualization of Dreams: An Analysis of Artificial Intelligence in Surrealist Art Creation

Abstract

As Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes integrated into artistic works, artists are increasingly focused on the interaction between AI and art forms. This paper focuses on surrealism art, researching the expression of AI in surrealistic art creation through examination and comparison. In terms of visual effects, AI can imitate surrealistic works but lacks the expression of human emotions and individual will. This is the most essential difference from actual artist works. However, this research discovers three perspectives on the role of AI in surrealistic art creation aspects: 1. Offering a new mode of creative expression, AI enables humans to convey their imagination into visual form and express themselves through the rapid generation of visual images. 2. Introducing new forms of communication, as communicating with AI allows people to understand and imagine both reality and the surreal. 3. Serving as a new implementing tool, AI becomes an integral part of an artwork and presents the final form of art. This study provides insights into surrealistic art creation in the new era.
