Here are four photographers who create mind-bending illusions by transforming the spaces and figures that they photograph. The first two artists project geometric shapes into architectural spaces while the second two artists use paint to transform figures until they are unrecognizable. George Rousse is a french artist who paints vibrant shapes in large empty warehouse spaces. .
