Artwork Significance
Celestial Elephant is part of Salvador Dali's iconic exploration of surreal imagery, where elephants with elongated, spindly legs symbolize the contrast between strength and fragility, weight and weightlessness. Inspired by his recurring elephant motif, this work evokes a dreamlike universe where fantasy and reality merge. The elephant carrying an obelisk references both classical sculpture and Dali's fascination with the passage of time, power, and desire, creating a compelling symbol of surrealism and imagination.
