Alienation or Ostranenie (Russian: остранение, IPA: [ɐstrɐˈnʲenʲɪjə]) is the artistic technique of presenting everyday things to the audience in an unfamiliar or strange way so that they can gain new perspectives and see the world differently.
According to the Russian formalists who coined the term, it is the central concept of art and poetry.
The concept has influenced 20th century art and theory, spanning movements such as Dada, postmodernism, epic theatre, science fiction and philosophy; Additionally, it is used as a tactic by newer movements such as culture jamming
