Optical illusions are images where something right in front of us seems to hide in plain sight. These images play tricks on our minds, causing us to perceive something different from reality. They often deceive and make us see things that don't actually exist in the image.
In ancient times, people believed these images were created by the actions of demons or were associated with witchcraft and evil spirits. Scientists later discovered that our brains can play tricks on us, and many illusions occur due to differing perceptions. Optical illusions are typically crafted using simple shapes like squares, rectangles, circles, triangles, and more, arranged in various ways to create the illusion.
