About Frottage and Cubomania

For images of Frottage or Cubomania, or any other relevant Surrealist technique. Frottages are made by using a pencil, charcoal or other drawing material to take a 'rubbing' on paper of a textured material (such as an interesting piece of wood). Cubomania is taking an image, cutting it up into squares (the cubes obviously) and then rearranging them randomly to make a collage type piece.

See Wikipedia - Surrealist Techniques for a really good summary.

I'm not heavily into rules, so two general guidelines:

1. If an image is posted that doesn't fit this groups general gist, it will be removed (probably)

2. For every 1 image you post could you comment on at least 2 others in the Pool. See coding below.

Other than that - go for it.

Remember to tag your image FrotCube.
