The Illusion of 3D Art Drawings
The Illusion of 3D Art Drawings
3D art, some more complex than others. You could try-out the simpler ones and work your way up.
Have you heard of the saying: "You have to see it to believe it." We rely on our sensory organs to make sense of the world. People like Hungarian Artist Sándor Vámos prove to us, that they are not as reliable as we might first think. In all of these drawings, our mind is telling us that there is a third dimension, that does not actually exist. Take for example, the incline illustration and the real metal ball. We are looking at that image and expecting the ball to roll down. Our brain is preparing us for something that is never going to happen, because that is a 2D drawing and the table is perfectly level. We have 5 vulnerable senses: touch, sight, hearing, smell and taste. Our body has a great fail safe, that is the mind and reason. It keeps our senses in check and makes us less likely to be fooled. Amazing how a piece of art can bring about a realisation like this. That said, for the sake of this post; allow you brain to be fooled, it's more fun...
