British art student has made a car disappear with some intricate paintwork.pretty cool
It took three weeks of painstaking spray painting for Sara Watson, 22, to create her visual illusion masterpiece, using a disused Skobia Fabia at a parking lot in northwest England.
The Skoda Fabia appears to disappear into the background when viewed from the right angle.
"I was experimenting with the whole concept of illusion but needed something a bit more physical to make a real impact," the Central Lancashire University student said.
"People have been stopping in the street to look and coming up and almost bumping into it, so it's had the desired effect."
Local charity Recycling Lives donated the car for the artwork, which is now being using for advertising.
"When I first saw the photos I was convinced it was something which had been done on the computer, but when you look more closely you see the effort and attention to detail she has put into it," the charity's chief Steve Jackson said.
"It is just amazing."
