Popis: In this paper, we present a framework to represent mock 3D objects and scenes, which are not 3D but appear 3D. In our framework, each mock-3D object is represented using 2D non-conservative vector fields and thickness information that are mapped on 2-complexes. Mock-3D scenes are simply scenes consisting of more than one mock-3D object. We demonstrated that using this representation, we can dynamically compute a 3D shape using rays emanating from any given point in 3D. These mock-3D objects are view-dependent since their computed shapes depend on the positions of ray centers. Using these dynamically computed shapes, we can compute shadows, reflections, and refractions in real time. This representation is mainly useful for 2D artistic applications to model incoherent, inconsistent, and impossible objects. Using this representation, it is possible to obtain expressive depictions with shadows and global illumination effects. The representation can also be used to convert existing 2D artworks into a Mock-3D form that can be interactively re-rendered.
