Rorschach flowers are a type of fictional bloom featured in the graphic novel "The Sandman" by Neil Gaiman. They are known for their unique and ever-changing colors, which reflect the reader's subconscious thoughts. According to the story, Jeff Rohrer, a character in the novel, has a fascination with these flowers. In essence, Rorschach flowers serve as a metaphor for the complexity of human emotions and the power of the human mind.
The 'randomness' of each perception correlates with the viewer's internal world, echoing the intention of the original Rorschach shapes created by Swiss psychiatrist Hermann Rorschach in 1921, designed to assess cognition and personality and diagnose certain psychological conditions.
