M.C. Escher-Inspired Artwork Made From Home Decor
Los Angeles-based artist Samara Golden channeled her inner M.C. Escher for this topsy-turvey art installation titled The Flat Side of the Knife, as displayed at MoMA/PS1.

The mirrored floor finishes the optical illusion reminiscent of Escher's mind-bending 1953 artwork Relativity.
And here's Relativity by M.C. Escher for comparison:
