The Trippiest Photo You'll See This Year

Is it a collage? A painting? An old sweatshirt? An old man? Anamorphic Photography and the betrayal of your perception

Anamorphic Portrait by Bernard Pras

French artist Bernard Pras created this Anamorpic Portrait. This is not a collage on paper or oil on canvas. No, this a room full of objects

Here we were thinking this was a pretty cool optical illusion

Anamo-wha?

I know right? I had to look it up

ANAMORPHIC:

producing, relating to, or marked by intentional distortion (as by unequal magnification along perpendicular axes) of an image

Origin:

New Latin anamorphosis distorted optical image

Essentially: We're totally gonna mess with your brain

Here's a video of Pras and company creating the photo

I didn't believe it until I had video evidence

Close up

One more time

Wow...

Keep it up Bernard Pras, we love what ya doin'
