Optical Illusions

  • Visual deception

    Visual deception is a technique employed to manipulate or alter one’s perception through optical illusions, camouflage, or image editing, creating an altered reality that differs from the actual. Visual deception exploits the brain’s tendency to interpret visual stimuli based on
  • Illusionary Perspective

    Illusionary Perspective is a concept in visual perception that exploits the brain’s tendency to interpret two-dimensional images as three-dimensional objects. This psychological phenomenon, rooted in our cognitive understanding of depth and spatial relationships, allows artists and designers to create compelling
  • Forced perspective

    Forced perspective is an optical illusion employed in visual arts, particularly in filmmaking and photography, to create a perception of depth or scale. This technique manipulates the human visual perception through the use of scaled objects and the correlation between
  • Depth illusion

    Depth illusion is a visual phenomenon where objects appear to have more or less depth than they actually possess, deceiving the viewer’s perception of distance and dimension. This optical illusion occurs due to various factors such as shading, perspective, overlapping
  • Black Art Principle

    The “Black Art Principle” is a visual illusion technique that uses a uniform black background, made of black velvet or similar light-absorbing material, to conceal objects painted or covered in the same material. When viewed under controlled lighting conditions, these
  • Anamorphic Art

    Anamorphic art is a unique form of visual expression that employs distorted images or shapes, which when viewed from a specific vantage point appear as recognizable and coherent forms. This technique manipulates perspective and geometry to create optical illusions that
  • Afterimage

    Afterimage is a visual illusion where an image continues to appear in one’s vision after the original stimulus has been removed. This phenomenon occurs due to the persistence of retinal cells responding to light even after the stimulus is gone,
  • Ames Room

    An Ames Room is a specially designed distorted room that creates an optical illusion, making people appear either larger or smaller than they actually are when viewed from a certain angle. The room’s trapezoidal shape and carefully calculated dimensions deceive
  • Moiré Pattern | Moiré Effect

    Moiré pattern is an interference pattern created when two grids or patterns with slightly different spacing overlap, resulting in a new pattern with areas of enhanced and reduced visibility. This phenomenon occurs due to the visual effect of the superimposed
  • Visual Persistence

    Persistence of Vision is a phenomenon in visual perception where an image lingers in the retina for a brief moment after the original stimulus has been removed. This persistence creates an illusion of continuous motion when static images are presented
