Answer to Question 1

E
Surrealist objects often juxtapose incongruous objects to provoke disorientation or a shiver of strangeness.

Answer to Question 2

North American Hopi and Zuni Indians made doll-size versions of the kachina, large supernatural beings danced by makers, as educational playthings so children might learn to identify and understand the numerous spirits. Ritual help for a spirit on its journey back from the Dreaming is the subject of Lipundja's Djalambu. Employing earth pigments on bark, the central form is a log coffin, which is also understood to represent a catfish, often thought to be a soul carried by a current of water in the river. The pendant depicting a ruler is from the Tairona culture, made of copper and gold alloy. The figure is probably a shaman, and the birds that unfold like wings from either side of his head are the spirit alter egos that give him access to the other world.
