The surrealist compositions of František Maria Černý clearly reveal his rich inner world. Such undoubtedly shaped and inspired the functionalist architect. In surrealist visions, he looks artistically at architecture, the figure and examines the basic shapes and colors. He lets the figure blend freely with the dream landscape, connecting it with solid and static shapes. He contrasts the figure of a woman with hard solid lines and wraps her fragility with a strip of birch bark, as if trying to protect her organic nature.
