JR extends IM Pei’s Louvre pyramid with optical illusion
Would have loved to see this in person!
Write-up from dezeen.
Artist JR has created a giant 3D optical illusion from paper that imagines the iconic pyramid at the Musée du Louvre in Paris continuing underground, but it has already been destroyed.
Named The Secret of the Great Pyramid, the trompe l’oeil was made from 2,000 stickers surrounding Pritzker Prize-winning architect IM Pei’s glass building, making it appear to project out from a white excavated crater.
