Australia's Infinite Stairway To Heaven

image credit: Matthew Perkins cc

Diminish and Ascend is a sculptural installation by artist David McCracken that, from certain angles, looks like a never-ending staircase. Part of the annual event known as 'Sculpture by the Sea' in Bondi, Australia, the staircase is one of the most eye-catching pieces at the outdoor exhibition this year that allows the mind to wander and imagine a surreal escape.

Though it appears to be a long climb to the top that goes beyond the Earth's atmosphere, it is nothing more than an optical illusion.
