Simulacrum Emporium
simulacrum (n.) - likeness, semblance, a representation or imitation of a person or thing.
Most famously, the concept behind this term has been introduced by Plato and has inspired many philosophers since, exploring various approaches like distorting e.g. a statue to make it look correct from the anticipated point of view (i.e. enlarging a tall statue towards the top to compensate for perspective from the bottom as one example).
