Optical illusions are hard to understand, but the American Museum of Natural History gave a simple explanation on their official website.
"What you see and what you think you see are different things. Your senses gather information and send it to your brain. But your brain does not simply receive this information — it creates your perception of the world," the description explained. "This means that sometimes your brain fills in gaps when there is incomplete information, or creates an image that isn’t even there."
That process is a result of evolution. "Survival depends on fast reactions," the blurb continued."Your brain has evolved to work quickly to piece together whatever bits and fragments it can get—and to do its best to figure out the rest."
