At his home in Portlligat in 1957, Salvador Dalí demonstrates the origin of the “oursin,” a liquid that takes on a particular form. Wearing a distinctive pointed hat with a flower tucked behind his ear, he leans over a dramatically lit table. With a fine paintbrush, he manipulates a mixture of milk and water on a dark, wet surface, where droplets glisten alongside the spiny sea urchins that inspired the technique.
