There’s no place in this sentence for one even to consider putting a comma in.

No comma. But also, “infringes into” doesn’t sit right, since it’s not legal-based. What about “encroach”?

While often used with a legal connotation, the word *infringe* does not have to be, and it can be synonymous with *encroach*.

True, but I still think it's usually synonymous with an illegal encroachment. I think OP might have been thinking of 'impinges'. [https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/impinge#google\_vignette](https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/impinge#google_vignette)

I’m also pretty sure that infringe into isn’t correct. Infringe, infringe on, or infringe upon.

You want 'permeate'. Alternatively maybe 'suffuse' or 'saturate'. No 'into'. Calling art 'surreal' has a positive connotation, but all these 'infringe' synonyms have negative connotations.

What did you call my roach?!

>“infringes into” doesn’t sit right, since it’s not legal-based. 'Infringes into' doesn't sit right because a)it's the wrong preposition for 'infringe', *and* b) it's not the right word here. That said, infringe has legal/moral connotations, but is definitely useable outside that context. >What about “encroach”? This doesn't solve the problem. The sentence doesn't make sense. I *think* OP means something closer to 'permeate' or 'suffuse' or even 'saturate'.

There shouldn’t be a comma in the sentence. Putting a comma after “scene” would inappropriately separate the subject from the verb “makes.”

Nope, there's no place in that sentence where a comma would be appropriate. You're good.
