OPTICAL ILLUSIONS: The Art of Deception of Perception

"We can trust our feelings, but it's easy to be cheated" (Aristotle 1) What is optical illusion? For most of us, this term reminds us of uniquely aligned images of sharp contrasting colors, and geometry that deceives the eyes and infringes us in all aspects about performance, shape, color, etc. . Expectation. "(Sekel). Figure 1 is a general example of this definition. In this image, if the image is actually stationary, the circle appears to be enlarged.

The illusion of the eye is an image contradictory to the real life. This means that the created image is not exactly what it is displayed. "Visual illusion has the potential to create images that deceive or mislead our brains using color, light, and patterns" (1) ("illusion", n.d., n.p). The brain is a very important part, but still the image can fool it. Some people may think that experiencing illusions is not right, but it is common for visual illusions to happen. Some people think that only one person feels the illusion, but in reality everyone will experience the illusion

Optical illusions may use colors, rays, and patterns to create images that may be fraudulent or misleading to the brain. The information gathered by the eye is processed by the brain and the resulting sensation actually does not match the actual image. Perception is the interpretation of what we accept through our eyes. Because our brain explains what we are seeing and trying to understand the world around us, an illusion will occur. The illusion of the eye is to show what we might or may not be like to our brains

There is a difference between the actual size and the size we know. "Illusion" shown below represents the power of our perception. Our brain gets clues from several diagonals, constructs a virtual space and "computes" it. There, the right person must be higher. This compensation mechanism is very useful for our daily life. However, this makes it difficult for us to estimate and compare the dimensions required for drawings. In order to get the correct size on paper, we need to ignore the dimensions we know and draw the dimensions we see. We know that people in the distance are not small, but we need to draw small on paper.
