Accidental surrealism is when you stumble upon something that looks totally weird or dreamlike by accident.
It could be a photo you took where everything seems out of place or a scene in a movie that makes you go “What the heck is going on here?” Basically, it’s like a random occurrence that creates a surreal or bizarre effect without even trying. You could say it’s like stumbling upon a unicorn while walking your dog or finding a pineapple growing in your backyard. It’s unexpected, but also kinda cool.
Here are some remarkable instances of accidental surrealism in real life that people shared in the popular subreddit and Facebook group appropriately titled Accidental Surrealism.
