Visual Perception

original

Our perception of an object is formed when the brain recognizes the borders of the object and then works to fill in the rest based on the border’s restrictions. The brain ceases to accurately represent the object when its borders are altered like in the circles above. The 90 degree angles of the squares that are used to form these four circles distort our perception of the object. It’s mind boggling.
