Summary/Abstract: The article considers how the non-Еuclidian features make sense of the visual space and daily perceptions. The profiles we face in daily experience and art are explained in terms of a visual illusion which origins from the form of visual space. When a profile is not responding to a unified spatial syntax it turns out to be an anomalous phenomenon. In fact, art and philosophy share the same area revealing unexpected profiles of the things.
