Garbage Face Optical IllusionSo, the illusion was lil’ too obvious for us yesterday, ayeh? I agree. But look at what birdie brought in today! Once again you’ll notice some kind of face figure, moreover it’s easy to see the face again, but the main difference between this and previous Octavio’s artwork is that the formation on your right wasn’t painted. It’s a real-life scene, and the image you see is a photo of an actual “exhibit”.

I’m not exactly sure of the origin, and whether this is some kind of prepared art installation, or maybe an “accidental” gem instead. With later being less possible, I believe that the person who deposited all the junk at this particular location, knew exactly what he or she was doing, and how to arrange all the garbage to form something that makes sense. This optical illusion greatly reminds me of what the store owner in Burkina Faso did to his shop.

    You might want to check your spelling of ‘garbage’ in the title Vurdlak

    Great pic…I think you mean garbage rather than grabage…FYI.

  6. Terra says:

    Nice! Very clever how they tied in the tunnel.

  7. Angelina Fu says:

    very cool and creative. good thing it wasn’t a car accident! =) thanks!

  8. Pygormus says:

    It’s “garbage”, not “grabage” and “later being less possible” would be better as “the latter being less likely”.

    Just trying to help.

    Oops, spelling error in the title.

  12. very good says:

    extremely good, amazing

  13. Joanna says:

    I’d like to see a photo taken at a different angle, too, so I can try to discern what “grabage” was used. It’s very good.

  14. yourenemy says:

    GRABAGE xDD

  15. Emiel says:

    It’s a nice illusion, but it’s really simular to the last one.. and it’s still a bit too obvious just like the last one

  16. servilan42 says:

    Awesome! I especially like the tunnel illusion as the top of his head.

  17. Kevin says:

  18. proxylott says:

  19. Muncher23 says:

  20. Tor Chfire says:

    Robin Williams. Totally.

  21. Narnia says:

    i think thats just as obvious!
    no offence V, but these illusions are no where near as good as they used to be :(

  22. Poppy says:

    Wow. That’s pretty cool :)

  23. gennia11 says:

  24. Dolphin says:

    I like it.Much better than the last one.

  25. Jilly says:

    skilled garbage artist :D not only he managed to create some kind of face, but also a lenient expression

  26. Kat says:

    It hurts my eyes to try and distinguish all the separate features of the junk pile. I really like how the artist used the tunnel. All in all, amazing sculpture, if not much of a complex illusion. (First comment, I think -.-)

  27. raychill says:

    this is awesome it looks like robin williams!! good job!

  28. Vurdlak, you are getting more interesting all the time! This art installation is very well done. A lot of people will call it nothing but junk, and they are right. But it is put together to form a piece of illusion art. Very well done.

  29. Røb says:

    Yay for Grabage! It rhymes with Cabbage! :D

  30. Stephen says:

    Clearly no accident, but brilliantly done.

  31. beckshino says:

    ah! its robin williams!

  32. Elliot says:

    I likes!

  33. This is absolutely wonderful. I have seen other exhibits of ‘junk’ art but this one tickles me more than most! And, yes, Robin Williams was the first thing that popped into my mind!! Shades of Bicentennial Man!

  34. servilan42 says:

    OMG, it is! It is Robin Williams.

  35. Linda Field says:

    I love the ingenuity of the imagination

  36. Terry Daniels says:

    I agree with geckshino it is Robin Williams

  37. wooow the tunnel is the best ,on top o his head WOW

  38. coolez says:

    they are not random garbage LOL

  39. Adrian says:

    It would be nice if you credited the photos.

  40. Leigh Heagney says:

    nice work I wonder is the sculptor and the photographer the same artist? another perspective would be interesting

  41. Tommy says:

    I see Ghandi!

  42. Val says:
