I've
been thinking about different Ideas for t-shirt designs, continuing
with some of the illustrations I did in second year for the book fair

optical illusions. The Universe correlates in the strangest of ways, for
example the capillaries in our lungs are very similar to the branches
of a tree, the colours in someones pupils look like exploding stars and
on and on. I want to experiment with forms that make our brain
malfunction, after all that's simply what an optical illusion does, its a
malfunction of the brain understanding what your eyes are seeing.
