An imaging system and method for creating a three-dimensional illusion. The imaging system includes a lighting source and a recessed surface formation. The recessed surface formation is a three-dimensional object having recessed sections and raised sections The placement of the lighting source and recessed surface formation is designed so that a viewer looking at the recessed surface formation from a specific, predetermined vantage point within a range of viewing angles will perceive an inversion of the recessed sections and raised sections with respect to one another. As the viewing angle becomes more acute, the recessed surface formation will appear to tilt towards the viewer. The method includes the steps required so as to produce the three-dimensional illusion. A reflective coating on the recessed surface formation, specifically the sidewalls thereof, is used to enhance perception of the illusion. Raised sections for casting shadows are equally important in defining form for the illusion.
