35 Optical Illusion Graffiti Works

From Floating 3D Graffiti to Illuminated Street Animation

— September 10, 2012 — Pop Culture
These examples of optical illusion graffiti are striking visuals created by street artists.

The world of art installation has transcended from the galleries to the streets. Graffiti is no longer a game of spray cans and blank walls. It has now become a world of giant murals, 3D Prints and illusionary techniques that trick the eye and mind into seeing beyond what is there.

A fantastic example of this is seen in the 'Tagged in Motion' installation by DAIM. He uses technology that does not require a solid canvas, but rather glasses to see the 3D light creations made by this technology. With technology and vast creativity, this collection shows the sheer talent of the street art game.
