© SAM JINKS Untitled (Kneeling Woman). 2015. Silicone, pigments, resin, and hair. The sculptures come to life at the Museo de Bellas Artes de Bilbao in Bilbao, Spain. No, they don’t actually walk and talk, but the life-like sculptures portray the human body in the realist form. In fact, the works of art are so realistic, that they are easily mistaken for living, breathing people. The temporary exhibition, Hyperrealist Sculpture 1973-2016, provided 34 pieces that represented over 50 years of the art movement. The sculptures included a grandmother holding a newborn— wrinkles and all, which could easily be mistaken for a child that is about to cry at any moment.

At first glance, it appears to actually be a human. The hair, wrinkles, and close attention to detail make this one impressive work of art. The cardboard boxes continue in a horseshoe shape, and finally end with the "man's" legs coming out of the other side. It's one of the best optical illusions, if you will, that I've seen.

Other sculptures include a couple mid-embrace, a woman enjoying the "sunshine" as life-like sweat drips down her chest, and this one— a woman seen sitting with her hands to her face and knees pulled up to her chest. The realistic pose is quite impressive on its own, but the artist didn't stop there.

The toenails, veins and ankle bones are all so realistic, they make this sculpture appear as a living person. READ NEXT: 28 Of History's Most Influential Leaders You Had No Idea Were Gay
