An Argentinian artist named Leandro Erlich has created an illusory swimming pool. This pool looks the same as a normal pool， but when you enter the pool， you will see a surreal scene： people wearing daily clothes， standing， walking and breathing underwater. Is such a scene outrageous？

In fact， there is an underwater room in the pool， that is hollow. The artist spread a chunk of thick Acrylic board across the pool and injected 10 cm of water into it， creating the illusion of a standard pool.

Leandro began his artistic career at the age of 16. He is very good at using visual effects to create absurd illusions， then helps make the virtual scene into reality. When we enter this space that subverts visual cognition and begin to wonder， we even doubt our eyes， and cant tell the difference between fantasy and reality. The artist will take you out and see the truth through clever arrangements. And when you suddenly realize the moment， you really have had an artistic experience.

阿根廷藝术家Leandro Erlich创造了一个虚幻游泳池。这个泳池看起来和普通泳池没什么区别，但当你进入泳池，会看到一个超现实的场景：人们穿着日常的衣服，在水下站立、行走和呼吸。这样的场景反常吗？

其实，泳池下方有一个水下房间，里面是中空的。艺术家将一大块厚厚的亚克力板横跨在泳池上方，再注入10厘米深的水，营造出标准泳池的错觉。

Leandro在16岁就开始了自己的艺术生涯。他很擅长利用视觉效果造成荒诞的幻象，将虚拟融入现实。当人们进入这个颠覆视觉认知的空间开始产生疑惑时，甚至怀疑自己的眼睛、分不清虚幻与现实时，艺术家又会通过巧妙的安排，带你走出表象，看清真实。而当你恍然大悟的那一刻，你就真正完成了一次艺术体验。
