“My left eye beckoned the right to unveil its gaze, and together they managed to perceive, through two subtly different images, the magical origin of space and the power of three-dimensionality.”

Humans possess the visual capacity to perceive the world in three dimensions. Each of our eyes captures a slightly different image due to the separation of the nose, and our brain reconstructs them, forming a three-dimensional image. This phenomenon is known as stereopsis.

The mystery of the power of our brain captivated me to represent this capacity through this self-portrait, which took five long photo sessions and was captured using real crystal cubes.
