At his home in Portlligat, Cadaqués, in 1957, Salvador Dalí demonstrates the origin of the "oursin," or sea urchin. Wearing a close-fitting cap and a distinctive patterned shirt, the artist leans intently over a table. With a fine paintbrush, he manipulates a mixture of milk and water on a small surface. His focus is mirrored by a large illustration of a fossilized sea urchin on a display board beside him, the inspiration for the liquid form he is creating.
