Cleverly created and artful optical illusions are a true treasure, and the Infinity Box byMatt Elson is no exception.

No matter how many pictures you see of this amazing experience, you won’t be able to truly understand its power until you see it in person. The Infinity Box is an amazing and interactive experience that both bends the minds of participants and lets them regress into children… by introducing a playful and magical world to them.

Everyone who sticks their head inside one of these boxes has a mystifying experience. Everyone.
