Entitled ‘Cercle et suite d’éclats,’ they overtake the not-so-small town of Vercorin in Switzerland. A master of [optical illusions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ripples-collection), the Felice Varini Circles add to an already [impressive oeuvre](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folded-time). I can’t imagine the time and energy it took to complete a project of this magnitude. Check out the gallery to be as equally astounded as I am right now. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 64% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Large-scale Optical Illusions:** Leveraging optical illusions on a large scale presents an opportunity for immersive and awe-inspiring art installations. - **Mastering Optical Illusions:** Exploring advanced techniques in optical illusions opens up possibilities for unique and captivating artistic expressions. - **Immersive Art Installations:** Creating immersive art installations that transform spaces can provide memorable and engaging experiences for viewers. ### Where This Applies - **Art and Design:** Artists and designers can embrace optical illusions to create innovative and visually striking artworks. - **Tourism and Hospitality:** Hotels, resorts, and public spaces can incorporate large-scale optical illusions to attract and engage visitors in unique and interactive ways. - **Event Planning and Experiential Marketing:** Event planners and marketing agencies can leverage optical illusions to design unforgettable experiences at conferences, trade shows, and brand activations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Clock-Shaped Wooden Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-installation.md) - [Optical Illusion Replica Artworks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liberty-science-center.md) - [Optical Illusion Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hooptical.md) - [Statement Street Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surreal-street-art-1.md) - [Color-Blending Kinetic Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/felipe-pantone.md) - [Wonderous Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble.md) - [immersive artful bright installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chroma-installation.md) - [Swirled Public Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tunnel-vision-installation.md) - [Dynamic Mathematically Shaped Surfaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mathematically-shaped.md)
