Illusions, by definition, deceive and distort, creating a false impression of reality. They play tricks on our perception, challenging the way we see and interpret the world around us. For this project, I delved into the concept of illusion—particularly how it relates to the body and self-perception. Inspired by the phenomenon known as Body Transfer Illusion, I explored the disorienting experience of feeling ownership over a body or body part that is not your own. This psychological illusion reveals how easily our brains can be manipulated into reshaping our sense of identity and physical reality.

Through my research, I became captivated by the ways Body Transfer Illusion challenges the boundaries between self and other, real and imagined. This fascination drove my creative process as I sought to visualize and represent this phenomenon. Using visual distortions, fragmented imagery, and layered compositions, I worked to depict the fluid and often deceptive nature of bodily perception.

The project invites viewers to question their own sense of self and how easily it can be influenced or altered. By making the intangible concept of Body Transfer Illusion visible, the work aims to blur the lines between reality and perception, offering a reflective space to explore the complexities of identity, embodiment, and the illusions we live within.
