How This Chalk Artist Creates Illusions on Pavement | Obsessed | WIRED

“Everything we think is real is, in some way, an illusion.“ Former NASA illustrator Kurt Wenner makes incredible, brain-busting chalk illusions. His works start with diligent planning, beginning with pencil and paper. Kurt even prototypes by using an iPhone’s camera to mimic human sight. He then maps these prototypes onto large street canvases where his ephemeral art can be enjoyed by the public.
