While the visual system tends to assume light is coming from overhead, hollow masks lit from below still appear convex.

This sets up a contradiction in your brain; the cues you get as you move around the dragon get mixed up, and you think it’s turning to follow you. A big cue is in the eyes.
What is a dragon illusion?
Dragon Illusion. This is really a wonderful Illusion, originally invented by some English guy I think.

The eye on the right (the dragon’s left eye) is below the left one in the cutout, and actually farther away from you. But your brain really wants to see a face, and if the face pops out, it must be facing a bit to the left, and therefore your brain thinks the eye on the right has to be closer to you.
