Painting about reality with a touch of magical elements makes the picture more attractive but keeps it realistic at the same time. It's not about creating a new world but presenting the modern world with a new point of view. Magical realism art is based on reality, not on fantasy. In this art, the topics are real life characters not from fairy tales. Some elements of it are discussed below. You can find more information here.
Wondrous element - In this art, the artist paints wondrous events that have a touch of reality. The picture of Mother Nature is covered with leaves and butterflies as they are a part of her beauty.
Inspired by the real word - The artist reveals the existence of magic in this world without creating a new magical world. It is a pure blend of the natural world and magic elements. They don't paint fairies or ghosts.
Magical elements: the artist presents reality with the help of magic elements that could not be found in the real world but their way of presentation will make you believe that they might be real.
Unique plot: the artist does not follow the traditional narration concept in their paintings. He/she always goes for a new concept that is beyond the imagination of the real world. It makes it unique.
Limited information: The artist doesn't describe too much information in his/her paintings but they are meant to be easy to get the message or full story in one painting. |
