Richard Gregory

Richard Gregory was a renowned psychologist and neuroscientist known for his work on perception, illusions, and the brain’s interpretation of sensory information. He explored how our minds create perceptions that sometimes differ from physical reality, revealing the ways visual illusions trick our brains. Gregory's research helped us understand cognitive processes involved in seeing and understanding the world, emphasizing that perception is an active construction by the brain rather than a direct reflection of external stimuli. His work bridged psychology, neuroscience, and art, making complex ideas accessible and highlighting the imaginative capacity of the human mind.
