When time changes and conveys the evolution of history, we move and flow in the flood of history. Satire is a literary performance for us to present discontent with the present situation and to challenge hegemony and further initiate public attention of the society. While many changes of history pass, countless revolutions have set off from dissatisfaction upon the present status of the society. Satire can be either a good weapon, or vague, publicize to achieve the goal.

Being in the time of change, surrealism originated in between World War I and World War II, and set a theoretical basis of creative style in accordance with psychologists like Freud, Hegel, and Bergson. Surrealism always dips in a fantasy space of dreams. Its unreal, bizarre fantasies have expressed the deep sense of creators. The performing methods of the creation integrating surrealism include thirteen items in total. They are "Displacement of Physical Nature," "Non-biotic Activation", "Biotic Materialization", "Limbs Anatomy Restructure", "Displacement of Time and Space", "Arrangement with Special Meaning", "Mixed Complex Image Space "," the Displacement of Ratios and Sizes", " Material Conversion ","Integration of Allograft", "Organic Abstract" ,”Perspective Fantasy ", and "Logical Shift." And then it is researched, analyzed and created by following its performance approaches and principles. By analyzing the issues of modern and ironic illustration, the contemporary satirical issues and the integration of surrealism performance practices can be discussed, and inspiration can also be gained from them so as to make this creation more reflective .

Illustration intends to make people clearly see and understand. It is a creative approach which focuses on communication. The integration among satire, surrealism, and illustration allows people to be indulged in the gap between fantasy and reality and become a medium to seek for dialogues so as to allow people to self-exam while they are exposing in fantasy. The creation attempts to create cross-cultural codes, to understand the key perspective of the issues, and to create a cross-international emotional link so that the viewers are able to understand the information in the surreal imaginative space, and further to achieve the goal of visually conveying the message.
