Impossible figures are intriguing forms that defy the reality of our 3D world. In the 90s, I began experimenting with representations of cylinders featuring fictitious right angles—an artistic play on geometry. These twisting impossible figures, which defy mathematics and physics, are ideal for interior decoration or merchandise like t-shirts or mugs because they captivate the viewer’s imagination and provoke thought. Their striking, paradoxical nature draws attention, making them perfect conversation pieces, while also offering a philosophical twist on the idea that what seems real may not always be.
By stripping those imaginary geometric form down to their essence, I instill them with greater power.
These drawings are taken from my book Drawing Optical Illusions, still available on Amazon.
And are available as prints and t-shirts and merch from my online gallery!
