anamorphic art
Anamorphic art is a form of visual art that uses inverted perspective and optical illusion to create a three-dimensional effect on a two-dimensional surface. The art often appears distorted when viewed from the "wrong" angle, but appears to be in 3D when viewed from a "correct" specific viewpoint. Jimmi has created both temporary anamorphic chalk art and more permanent anamorphic mural art across the country. Each year in Jimmi participates in the Yarram Chalk Art Festival, where his work often reflects this style of art.
3D anamorphic mural for Australia's National Women's Soccer Team, The Matildas.
In February 2023 Jimmi was commissioned by Banter Agency and Football Australia to design and paint a mobile anamorphic 3D mural depicting three of the players from the Australian Soccer team The Matildas. The artwork was designed around an interactive concept, where visitors could stand with the floor-mural for a photo opportunity that would place them in situ with the players.
This mural was first installed at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne in February 2023, and then re-installed at Accor Stadium in Sydney later the same year.

Pecten Avenue 3D Snakes and Ladders
Created in 2023 for Warrnambool City Council, this 3m x 3m snakes and ladders board appears to be in 3D when viewed from the correct viewpoint. This life-sized snakes and ladders board offers a fun and interesting twist to the original table-top game, with users being able to use themselves as their game pieces.
Liebig Street 瓦南布尔
错视画笑翠鸟
The 位于瓦南布尔 Liebig 街的 trompe l'oeil Kookaburras 是合作项目 之间 Jimmi 和当地艺术家 Alara Harris。这幅作品描绘了坐在 the Main Street 的饮水机上的两只笑翠鸟。 The trompe l'oeil or 错觉 的 eye 从一个单一的观察点开始工作，而从任何其他角度看，笑翠鸟似乎都被拉伸和错位了。
怪人
3D trompe l'oeil 企鹅和狐狸
2018 年 6 月，瓦南布尔市议会委托我和当地艺术家阿拉拉哈里斯作为 Liebig 街道城市更新项目的一部分，在巷道中创建 3D 艺术品。 这个想法是为了增加公众对受街道重建影响的企业后面的小巷和巷道的兴趣和交通。
我们选择创作 Oddball 的故事，描绘一只愤怒的狐狸即将攻击瓦南布尔当地的几只仙企鹅。
这件艺术品位于 Fishtales 咖啡馆后面，其创作方式是，当从特定位置观看时，狐狸和企鹅似乎是站在 3D 中的。
游客可以将自己置于狐狸和企鹅之间，本质上是让自己 怪人（来自电影 怪人） 并保护企鹅免受攻击。
