Argentine artist Leandro Erlich encourages people not to believe their eyes. As a demonstration of this principle, he creates optical illusions, which shows completely unthinkable things. One of these works, Dalston house, was presented recently in London.
Leandro Ehrlich is known to connoisseurs of contemporary art for his bold and extraordinary experiments with space and form. It was he who made people look at the world from the bottom of the pool, and also created the front door that looks like it is about to fall apart.
In his new work, Leandro Ehrlich turned to architecture. He built a small residential building in London in a typical Victorian style. The problem is that the facade of this building does not stand perpendicular to the ground, but lies on it.
But above the ground there is a huge mirror the size of the building mentioned above. And it is located at a noticeable angle to the horizontal surface. That is why everything that happens on the lying facade is reflected in it, and people can walk or lie there, children play, teenagers frolic, and all this will be displayed over their heads, as if in some magical world.
From the outside, it will seem as if people are walking on the wall of a building, which, of course, contradicts the laws of physics and common sense. This is what Leandro Ehrlich hints at, declaring that you should not believe your own eyes.
