Mind-bending car art by Erik Johansson

Self-taught photographer and artist Erik Johansson is causing a stir with his 'illusion' photographs. These mind-bending images take everyday cars, roads and transport as subjects but transform and challenge reality in all kinds of amazing ways...

The 27-year-old Swede sums up his work as "Surreal ideas realised in a realistic way with a touch of humour". His mixture of graphics and imagery, combined with heavy use of digital image manipulation, creates a unique and sometimes mind-boggling effect.

Johansson's fascination with travel and roads has led him to produce a whole series of works which question the patterns and everyday use of transportation. Click on to check out this selection of his best.
