Can you solve it? You won’t believe these optical illusions! The magical art of Olivier Redon Look at the Coca-Cola can in the main image. It is not a can, but an optical illusion – a trick of perspective. Can you work out what is going on? The illusion is the latest masterpiece from Olivier Redon, a French-American inventor, who has had his creations used in museums and on TV programmes around the world. For today’s puzzles, I present five of Redon’s most brilliant images. The challenge is to figure out how he managed to create them. 1. Ceci n’est pas une canette Another look at the can. What are you actually looking at? 2. The Oh La La Box This is not a red box! What is Redon actually holding in his hand? 3. Twin dinos This iPhone image is of two dinosaurs that are the same size. How did Redon take the image? 4. Fragile This is a portrait of Redon and his daughter. How was it taken? 5. The transparent cube This looks like cube with words on three external sides. But can you see what you are really looking at? I’ll be back at 5pm UK with the reveals for each of these images. Please do return. The illusions are sensational. PLEASE NO SPOILERS. Instead, please discuss your favourite optical illusions. All photographs are copyright Oliver Redon. You can check out his website olired.com here and follow him on LinkedIn .
