Optical illusion uses simple trick to create stunning design – what do you see?

SOMETIMES our mind tricks our eyes into seeing something that isn’t really there.

This incredible optical illusion uses a simple trick to create a stunning design, but what do you see?

Artist Yves Lappert uses light and shadows to make observers see shapes that aren’t really there.

The image appears to show four black shapes behind two orange columns.

However, that’s not what’s really going on.

In reality, there are actually only two orange columns positioned against a wall.

Every other shape is an illusion.

The rest of the design is created exclusively by light and shadows from the two columns.

If you’re interested in illusions, this one could reveal awkward personality traits about yourself.

Another could reveal if you are more so strong-willed or laid back.

And this one could show what kind of brain you have.
