// Untitled - Bite by Kiki Smith, created in 1988, is a digital print on paper that captures an intimate and contemplative moment. This piece, limited to an edition of 50, portrays a close-up of a woman appearing to bite or rest her face on her arm, rendered in cool, muted tones of blue and gray. The soft, almost blurred focus evokes a dreamlike quality, emphasizing vulnerability and introspection. Smith’s work often explores themes of the human body, identity, and emotional states, and this image suggests both self-protection and introspective solitude. The artwork's understated composition invites viewers to reflect on personal and universal feelings of introspection and fragility.

What is Surrealism?
Surrealism began in the 1920s as an art and literary movement with the goal of revealing the unconscious mind and unleashing the imagination by exploring unusual and dream-like imagery. Influenced by Sigmund Freud’s theories of psychoanalysis, Surrealist artists and writers sought to bring the unconscious into rational life, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. The movement aimed to challenge conventional perceptions and express the irrational aspects of the human experience.
