Consider Rousseau's The Dream and Kusama's Love is Calling. Both works are imaginative rather than realistic. Compare the methods each artist uses in creating these images

What will be an ideal response?

Painting, like poetry, can bring an imaginary world to life. Rousseau's indifference to art traditions resulted in paintings like The Dream, which depicted a lush, complex design that does not exist in real life. Kusama's Love is Calling employed mirrors and inflatable tentacle-like forms covered in polka dots to create a hallucinatory environment in which viewers can lose themselves in wonder.
