The international audience knows the exhibition’s protagonist from street art illusions: Eric Johansson is famous for his stunning 3D drawings that delude passersby in public spaces. Masterpieces of “everyday surrealism” are created in accordance with Photoshop rules. First, the artist comes up with the idea of a collage and then finds an appropriate place for it. The search for a natural scene is an equally important part of the creative process that can span over years. After making up his mind about the “canvas”, the inventor mounts the image in such a way as to create a new reality.
