This question is soooo subjective. How is a lobster telephone more unconscious/fantastic/imaginative than a sculpture with abstract spinning circles? How does AAMC split hairs like this?
Wishy-washy CARS answers. How to pick? (unscored spoiler)

Not gonna lie, I'm a huge Dali fan so I knew what 80% of his works are like and chose this answer based off of preexisting knowledge.
If I didn't know any of that, I would have thought: Why would you have an animal (or food) in place of a communication device? That's crazy! It's not exactly clear what the sculpture or circles are so you can't say whether it's fantastical or bizarre, per se. Maybe the sculpture is a bar of soap and the circles represent soap bubbles. That wouldn't be as obviously fantastical/surrealist as the lobster telephone. I guess the sculpture choice is too vague. Lobster example is way more fantastical/surrealist.
