Procrastinate With These Mesmerizing Beauty GIFs

While we usually look to GIFs when we're in need of a good laugh, sometimes we stumble upon a moving image that is so incredible, it takes our breath away. Artist George Redhawk's mesmerizing GIFs had us staring for a solid 10 minutes. We were even more impressed by them when we discovered the graphic designer is legally blind.

Redhawk used to work in medicine until he suddenly lost his sight, which destroyed his career and other aspects of his life. He began to obsess over seeing as many beautiful things as possible in fear that he'd lose more of his vision, and this led him to an appreciation of art. He found a parallel between morphing GIFs and his shifting sight, which inspired him to play with morphing software and mutating images. From that came his collection of GIFs, The World Through My Eyes.

"It's an artistic expression of the confusion I go through with my vision loss," Redhawk told Vice's Creator Project."Not enough data getting sent to the brain, and it tries to fill in the blanks with false information, so you can't trust what your eyes or brain are telling you." While all of his creations are hauntingly beautiful, we're particularly drawn to those with a definite beauty theme.
