Pareidolia

This week we learnt about Pareidolia, it's like seeing an image in an image. It is a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus being perceived as significant. We were given 45 minutes to find images of it within the school compound and these are what I've found.
Water Fountain
The wall outside the gallery
The emergency plug
I inverted the lift buttons with the handicapped signed and it looks like eyes with a mouth
The clock created the eyes of the face
The cabinet in the in the lounge

These are examples of pareidolia I found in the school vicinity.
Collaging those my group found together:
There are so many examples of such around us in our daily life, if we could just spend time or even pay more attention to some things around us, you could simply find them anywhere around you.
