Lately I have been having vivid dreams which are rife with surreal symbology. I often research dreams and symbolic meanings of the subconscious. In my recent research I came across a method for creativity implemented by Salvador Dali where he would take short naps holding on to a spoon. When he would drop the spoon the sound would wake him, and he would continue to design.

This practice, also known as "the hyponogogic vertical nap", is a means to achieving a state in which the mind can transcend its usual reasonable state and undertake a surrealist dream-like state more conducive to out of the box thinking.

I really like the high shine and curvature on this ring.

Dali was very interested in food and actually often drew cutlery in his artworks. Perhaps this was due to his hypnogogic spoon practice.
He also used a lot of draping / melting imagery in his works.
The symbols of the crutch and the sphere, his use of gold accents and sharp angled corners are elements which I would like to take forward in to my own designs.
