Tim Noble and Sue Webster Dirty Rats

Yeah, I expect you’d crucify me even faster if I used the original title for the illusion below, but hey – it’s art! Those so-called artists get away with murder, if it’s part of their art installation or exhibition. This reminds me of well-known local eccentric that used to walk naked across our main square, [...]

Few days ago, Laura Bee sent me this photo by a Chinese artist called Xu Bing. Attached photo was taken on one of Xu’s classes titled: Square Calligraphy Classroom.

Gala Placidia Face Optical Illusion

One of our fans, mr. Jacenty found what appears to be the best hollow face optical illusion up to date. The hollow face illusion, as mentioned more than few times, gives you impression that the object you are seeing is embossed, while in reality it’s embedded. Sometimes the illusion works vice-versa as well. To remind [...]
