Self-Moving Optical Illusion

Flying Black Bat
A new optic design for my “Super Optical Illusion” book project...

Kinoptic designs are optical illusions in which a static image appears to be moving due to the cognitive effects of interacting color contrasts and shape position. The essence of Kinoptic Art is actually to play with our optic nerves, to surprise and create the illusion of colors, dimensions or motion. Op Artist uses a palette of elements like blank spaces, XOR spaces, interspaces, interferences, space tiling and geometric patterns. Precision is also important in my creative processes: a small change in an Kinoptic Art picture can strongly modify or negate a visual effect.

The bat in the picture below seems to flutter, move and/or expand. Moreover, when you stare for a while at it and close your eyes you will see a white bat!
