Frank Wijngaard from The Netherlands pointed me to this incredible Dutch shadow/mirror art artist called Diet Wiegman. As Frank explained, together with #Shigeo Fukuda, Diet Wiegman is a true pioneer in this kind of art-form. If you remember, we had some interesting shadow installations by #Tim Nobel and #Sue Webster, but Diet has brought this onto the next level. What he did, he introduced mirrors and light reflections as a part of the installation. Check some of the photos in this post to see what I mean. Hope you like this as much as I did!
The first ones the best, even though the UK and the rest of Europe our out of proportion.
This guy is a true visionary =] Thanks for sharing!!!
T-thatrt’s amazing!
Wow, very clever!
that’s a really nice illusion thanks for posting :D i like those sort of things :)
gasp!
Hey! Where’s Italy in the first picture? :-(
I love these!
these are awesome! best post in a long time!
Awesome. The trash shadow things are always awesome
that is insane…does anyone know how long it took to make these???
These are so creative! I love these more than the usual illusions because I would never be able to guess the reflection by looking at the object at all!!
Cool. Some kinda look faked though.
lol cool first? i dunno :D
Totaly beautiful! An art form all it’s own. You have the right conections Vurdlak. Thanks for sharing.
Not understand how something is created should never be a barrier to appreciating its beauty.
Great!!!!!!!
yum yum to the food on the first picture!
That is some raelly cool stuff. Although the terminator one is a little hard to believe. The venus is just amazing.
amazing work! thank you for sharing it with us
love the venus of milo
wow cool hey first post
thats impossible
My goodness!! How is that done?
Wow! Those are amazing!!
Very cool!
That’s amazing! I always love the garbage sculptures that have shadows, but adding mirrors makes even better! Great illusions, V!
Wow… It makes me wonder how people who make these things do it.
Me too Flynn.
The second and third are the most awesome, and the most unbelievable (They look photoshopped?). The fourth was just the standard “shadow art”, while the first was only slightly creative… But this has a lot of potential, and it’s certainly better than the shadow art.
These photos present the shadows as the light bearers and put me under a charm. This art talks loudly and convincingly. Thank you for the sharing.
THSOE ARE COOL!
COOLIO! That is pretty awesome, seriously. Like, holy crud…
This guy has waaaaaaaaaayyyyy too much free time. Most of getting these right would just be trial and error. But it’s still pretty cool!
