About: Hidden face

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

People often see hidden faces in things. Depending on the circumstances, this is referred to as pareidolia, the perception or recognition of a specific pattern or form in something essentially different. It is thus also a kind of optical illusion. When an artist notices that two different things have a similar appearance, and draws or paints a picture making this similarity evident, they make images with double meanings. Many of these images are hidden faces or hidden skulls.

  • People often see hidden faces in things. Depending on the circumstances, this is referred to as pareidolia, the perception or recognition of a specific pattern or form in something essentially different. It is thus also a kind of optical illusion. When an artist notices that two different things have a similar appearance, and draws or paints a picture making this similarity evident, they make images with double meanings. Many of these images are hidden faces or hidden skulls. These illusionistic pictures present the viewer with a mental choice of two interpretations: head or landscape, head or objects, head or architecture, etc. Both of them are valid, but the viewer sees only one of them, and very often they cannot see both interpretations simultaneously.

  • En fixeringsbild kallas en bild med en dold figur, som framträder först vid speciell granskning. Termen används även för bilder som kan ge två o­lika synförnimmelser men bara kan uppfattas en i taget. Ordets ursprung kommer från tyskans Vexierbild med samma betydelse (eg. "gäckande bild", till vexieren "narra, lura"; av latinets vexare, "o­roa; plåga"). (sv)
  • 隐藏的面孔(英語:Hidden faces),一是指因空想性错视,在对特定物体的感知或辨识上,错视到的隐藏的面孔;二是指艺术家在刻意创作的带有双重含义的作品。 莱奥纳多·达·芬奇在他的笔记中写道:“当你看到有污痕或是嵌有不同石块的任何墙,你将试着看到某些场景,它们似乎是各种不同的风景,有山、河、岩石、树木、平原、宽谷、一座座丘陵。你也将能够看到各种战役和快速移动的图形的轮廓,或是奇怪的人脸和奇装异服以及诸多事物,你可以把这些事物分离抽出个体并精心设想其外形。” (zh)
