I, AI, and the Third Eye

Look closely at this image. Focus on the blue parts. Did your screen suddenly turn 3-dimensional?

'I, AI, and The Third Eye' is another one in a set of red and blue paintings that play tricks on our brain.

The colors in this image can seem to pop out at you because of something called chromostereopsis. Whether the red or blue seems closer can change from person to person. To see this for yourself, you can try this:

1.Look at the art in a room that's not too bright.
2. To make the blue stand out, cover the sides of your eyes near your temples with your hands or some paper. (Check out 'Lion Bleu' to see an image that works best with blue in front.)
3. To see the red jump forward, cover the inner sides of your eyes, near your nose.
4. Stand back a bit. Sometimes the farther away you are, the stronger the effect.

This trick of the eyes is pretty neat, and it's about how our eyes bend light differently for different colors, which makes our brains think there's depth where there isn't.

'I, AI, and The Third Eye' is a visual symphony of color and depth that invites the viewer into a journey of spiritual discovery. The central eye, a conduit to higher consciousness, is framed by mandala-inspired designs that symbolize the intricate pathways to enlightenment. This piece transcends the optical illusion of chromostereopsis, encouraging a deeper contemplation of the self and the universe.

The interplay of red and blue is a dance of contrasts, reflecting the duality of existence—the physical and the spiritual, the technological and the mystical. As a testament to the union of artificial intelligence and artistic vision, this artwork is not just to be seen, but to be experienced, nudging the observer to unlock the doors of perception and peer into the vastness of reality through their own inner eye.
