"My work demonstrates that visual illusions are not errors of perception, but essential tools for understanding how the brain constructs reality".
Your work is truly fascinating. The way you’ve managed to translate the theoretical concept of "impossible objects" into physical, three-dimensional forms that can be held is incredibly impressive- it is a "cool" and creative intersection of art and perception. E F, PhD Associate Professor
"Olivier is one of the world's leading inventors of illusions" Mark Setteducati, American magician and inventor of illusions, games and puzzles. "He is one of the smartest and most inventive people in the field of optical illusions" Prof Richard Wiseman,Professor of the public understanding of psychology. “I've been devouring your website. How very wonderful! I'm very much interested in the work you're doing.”Annalisa Crannell,American mathematician, and an expert in the mathematics of geometric perspective.
"Olivier is passionate about art, science, and magic. As an optical illusionist, he can wear all the hats. By strategically tricking the human eye, Olivier and Chloe use their art to make the impossible possible" Jennifer Yoshikoshi, L'Almanac
"Olivier, has created several 3D objects that produce three-dimensional illusions. He explains that these 3D illusion effects occur under normal, binocular, and near viewing conditions. I find it useful to test and report this hypothesis, given the widespread belief that binocular disparity can override fundamental shape constraints". Lydia M. Maniatis Professor in the Psychology (visual perception)
