This gallery will approach invention as an activity characterized by “thinking outside the box”. An array of puzzles of varying degrees of difficulty will challenge you to consider multiple conclusions and will entice participation and support from on-lookers. Illusions reinforce the message that there is always more than one way to look at things. The look and feel of the gallery is of a giant interlocking puzzle with pieces distributed throughout the space. The gallery reflects an interpretive approach that seeks to create connections between creative problem solving, illusions and the work of real inventors.
