WIN: Enjoy mind-bending experience at Gateway’s World of Illusions

Gateway Theatre of Shopping produces a meticulous installation of six ‘rooms’ which feature insane optical illusions which will completely confuse and bewilder (in the best possible way) all who step inside and capture the moment.

SOMETIMES the mind plays tricks on the eyes and sometimes it’s the eyes that play tricks on the mind. Visitors to the World of Illusions – prepare to question the very fabric of reality and to have your senses warped.

Gateway Theatre of Shopping produces a meticulous installation of six ‘rooms’ which feature insane optical illusions which will completely confuse and bewilder (in the best possible way) all who step inside and capture the moment. “It’s a shape-shifting, mind-bending experience,” said Gateway Theatre of Shopping marketing manager, Michelle Shelley. “We wanted to create an immersive experience which would turn the ordinary upside down. Families and friends can come to have fun, take photos and scratch their heads in disbelief at what their photos reveal,” added Shelley.

Not wanting to give too much away before the official opening on Friday, 28 May, Shelley added that they have chosen to bring six of the best illusions to the space on the Cinema Level, for their visitors’ enjoyment. World of Illusions will be open for the next six months.

Six illusions have been chosen to intrigue the young and old and to spark curiosity in science and different perceptions of reality. One of the illusions is the Ames Room, researched by clever ophthalmologist Adelbert Ames Jr back in 1934. Ames played with perspective to create his famous Ames Room which uses unexpected distortions in construction to mislead our minds’ strongly-held assumptions.

All Covid-19 protocols have been implemented and must be adhered to. The area is open during trading hours and is free to enter.

Here is a sneak peek of what you can enjoy in the Ames Room:
