Dreamcore

Dreamcore is a surrealist aesthetic that uses motifs commonly associated with dreams, daydreams or nightmares, portrayed through media such as images, videos and, on occasion, music. Dreamcore shares many similarities with surreal memes; however, it does not rely on absurdist humor.

Visual

Dreamcore, as stated before, is commonly portrayed through images and videos, which utilise different ‘base images’ such as liminal spaces, unrealistic terrain and structures (photoshopped hills, floating buildings, etcetera), or even fantasy-like lands, to give the visual a dream-like quality.

Origins

Dreamcore’s exact origins are unknown, but it gained popularity in the early 2020s with a surge of TikTok videos containing dreamlike visuals. The videos often include original characters that are typically drawn or stitched together with numerous images. These characters usually have objects for heads.
