“Slowly Toward The North” is an artwork created by Yves Tanguy in 1942. It is a surrealistic landscape, exemplifying the Surrealism art movement.
The artwork presents a dreamlike and otherworldly landscape, characterized by abstract forms and undefined shapes. The foreground is filled with an array of ambiguous, biomorphic objects that seem to defy gravity. These forms exhibit a mixture of organic and mechanical elements, arranged in a mysterious and enigmatic composition. The background features a murky, almost ethereal sky, creating a sense of depth and endless space. The muted color palette of blues, greens, and grays contributes to the surreal atmosphere, evoking a world that teeters between the real and the imagined.
