Barbara Taff’s Vision: From the Ordinary to the Extraordinary

Softmotion collaborated with multidisciplinary artist and award-winning designer Barbara Taff to produce large-scale 3D lenticular artworks that challenge perception and awaken imagination. Through lenticular printing, Taff transforms everyday moments into vibrant visual experiences that merge observation with wonder.

Barbara Taff’s artistic vision has always focused on turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. A multidisciplinary artist with roots in design and architecture, she draws inspiration from everyday textures, patterns, and reflections. In collaboration with Softmotion, these moments were reimagined through the lenticular medium, each piece evolving as the viewer moves, revealing hidden layers of form, light, and meaning.

Softmotion’s fine art lenticular production helped Taff to bring her ideas to life, combining color, geometry, and movement into seamless dimensional compositions. The resulting works blur the boundaries between the physical and the perceptual, inviting audiences to pause, look closer, and engage with motion as an integral part of her artwork.

Influenced by the Bauhaus, Op Art, and kinetic movements, Taff’s collaboration with Softmotion continues her exploration of visual illusion and human perception. These lenticular pieces extend her legacy of blending art, science, and emotion, transforming observation into wonder.
