"This spinal landscape, with its frenzied rocks towering into the air above the silent swamp, has attained an organic life more real than that of the solitary nymph sitting in the foreground," Balard writes.
"The Eye of Silence shows the landscapes of our world for what they are - the palaces of flesh and bone that are the living facades enclosing our own subliminal consciousness."
In "The Coming of the Unconscious," Balard provides analyses of surrealist paintings, revealing their depth and connection to the subconscious mind.
The "terrifying structure" at the center of René Magritte's The Annunciation is described as "a neuronitic totem," symbolizing our internal mental processes.
