You really can open your eyes underwater

Extraordinary swimming pool installation by artist Leandro Erlich, shown in the permenant collection of the 21st. Century Museum of Art, Kanazawa.  Also shown later at MOMA, New York.  A bit of a stunt but strangely compelling at the same time.  On his website, I love the 'Cabinet Du Psy' reminding me of Pepper's Ghost illusion, and 'The Glass Shop'. This man is a true illusionist and magician.
