Anamorposis is an illusion where a specific vantage point is needed for the image to come together. French artist Bernard Pras has made an art of assemblage. This, his latest piece, is a portrait of Malian actor Sotigui Kouyaté.
You can see it is composed of clothes, paint, wood, rubber, and other objects scraped together.
It's only when seen through his camera that the portrait comes together.
Without using any green screen, these optical illusions are simpler than they appear. Really, just titling the camera to level with the sidewalk creates what seem like gravity defying feats.
This from the mind of filmmaker Ross Ching and star dancer Karen Cheng.
