Turkish artist Tolga Girgin is an electrical and electronics engineer by day and a master calligrapher by night. In his latter role, he creates stunning 3D calligraphic art that looks like it’s standing or peeling off the paper it’s drawn on. The illusion is created by Tolga’s skillful use of shades, shadows and perspective. Check out his work below.
