Trompe L'oeil

Trompe L’oeil invites artists to create work centered on ideas of illusion, perception and reality.  A French phrase meaning ‘deceives the eye’, Trompe L’oeil is a theme in art, generally used to describe work that creates a true-to-life depiction of a real object, scene or being. These artworks question reality and the aesthetics of realism.  Trompe l’oeil forces the viewer to question what we see every day and consider the boundary between the artist's world and our own.
