The watch seems to be pulling apart and stretching.
Also, the ghostly way the watch drapes over one edge In his painting, Dali assimilates shadowy outlines of objects and uses the dreamlike quality in the way the watch twists and its broken pieces unexplainably float above it. It uses techniques such as dreamlike or ghostly qualities, juxtaposition (a method for rejecting harmony in their work) and incorporates surreal objects and subject matter.ĭali uses these same techniques in his painting Soft Watch at the Moment of Explosion to intrigue his viewers and provoke thought. Surrealism rejects logic, reason and natural order. Ghostly appearance to accentuate the mysterious and unexplainable in his painting.
Created in 1954, Dali used the presence of a dreamlike quality and The Melting Watch, (also known as Soft Watch at the Moment of First Explosion) is an example of this surrealist movement.
