Sometimes our eyes see things that aren't quite what they actually are, and sometimes things that aren't even there. It seems like such "tricks" of vision are exceptional, rare. But that's not the case. Under certain conditions, optical illusions are natural phenomena.
Since ancient times, architects and artists have known about the peculiarities of our eyes and have played with viewers' perceptions. And to this day, all visual art takes into account and utilizes optical illusions. Moreover, without illusions, cinema and some artistic movements might never have emerged.
This book collects the most interesting and surprising visual "deceptions," explains why and how they occur, and invites readers to create their own illusions and experiment with them.

INTERVIEW

While freedom is certainly worth experiencing, running away from home isn't necessary. I had a moment as a child when I got upset with everyone and left home, but I had nowhere else to go. I walked the streets, watched the windows light up, and then returned home. No one at home even noticed I'd left. That was incredibly frustrating, too. But I still remember that feeling—that I left home without thinking about what would happen next. And my characters experience the same thing. Perhaps, to see what good there might be in a house, you need to leave it, to look at your home from the outside.
