There’s accidental art…then there’s accidental surrealism. Artists from the surrealism movement seek the odd beauty and magic in the unknown without regard for anything ordinary.
That art is created intentionally but sometimes it occurs naturally in the wild and there’s a special Reddit group dedicated to pretty solid examples — called “Accidental Surrealism” naturally.
Naturally occurring, trippy instances of surrealism caught on camera should be their own genre.
