Salvador Dali Art as Symbolic Torus and Flow
New respect for Salvatore Dali, who I thought was weird, and DeepSeek thinks he was self-absorbed and theatrical, but he is posing symbolism pictograms. That's courage.
Image A, using his moustache as horizontal plane outflows from his head-torus, part of that flow goes up and reenters at the top, https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/side-to-top-loop/ part goes down and re-enters at the bottom. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/loop-back-side-to-bottom/
When one eye is closed, it's likely the etheric downward flow side. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/cover-eye-closed/
Images B and C are using flowers as horizontal portal symbols. My collection uses arms, he uses moustache. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/bud-to-flower/
Image D has a torus above his head, and straight arm (flow away from the core) being upward to the side of the horizontal plane of the wicker torus, and the bent arm being downward (flow toward the core) flow. His head would normally be upward flow into the wicker torus. Legs straight and bent is more common than using arms. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/legs-straight-and-bent/
Image E has his head as a head-torus separate from that wicker body-torus. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/higher-torus/
Image F uses those tusks as side flows and his cane is a diagonal flow through the core. George also does this. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/st-george/
Crossed wrists are also about crossing flow diagonally at the core. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/crossed-wrists-downward/
His hat resembled a phrygean cap, https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/phrygean-cap/ but I think many of those in my phrygean collection are loop-backs to the top-center, whereas his hat seems to connect to a side flow, which is what diverging double bird heads often do. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/eagle-two-head/
