| Abstract | ||
| Perception is the process that happens in our minds when we try to identify a specific image of objects that differ in their colours, composition, and feel using light reflected from these objects. The mind exerts as much efforts as it can and engages with these objects to form an image for them that might be realistic or illusionary based on theories, former experiences, and learning. The human mind often makes visual mistakes when it treats, comprehends, and identifies shapes of objects that surround it and it can come up with deceitful and desired or undesired phenomenon in the formation of space and then the phenomenon of illusion and visual deception happen. Visual deception is the act that gives the onlooker a distorted visual image where vision deceives perception and this depends on the fact that information encountered by the naked eye contradicts with previous gained or learnt experiences. That is attributed to the concept of illusion in art which is linked to the natural art that makes the onlooker believes what he sees and experiences the apparent truthfulness of what exists in the presentation, this is in the general meaning. As for other meaning which is more deterministic of the illusionary tendency concept which indicates the use of specific artistic techniques or artistic methods such as perspective and foreshortening to deceive the eye, and maybe the mind, to make them think that what they see inside the artistic work is what actually exists outside it. The research question: How the visual deception of the Anamorphosis art plays a role in creating the out of ordinary and enriching the advertisement idea and convince the recipient?
