His first exhibition in Optical illusion was performed as a 3-D painting, although it was not his first experience.{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=|title="خطای دید" برای من، فصل مشترک چند هنر بود|trans-title=Optical Artwork was the common denominator of several arts for me|url=http://zendegisalem.khorasannews.com/newspaper/page/19233/1/23027/0|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=19 June 2020|website=Zendegi Salem}} Sokhandan has created many personal and business artwork, such as park construction, museum structure, graphic designing, and sculpturing based on Optical illusion and layout and drawing 3-D artifacts.{{Cite web|title=کارگاه آموزشی "تکنولوژی و هنر" در نمایشگاه الکامپ برگزار شد|trans-title=The "Technology and Art" workshop was held at the Elcamp exhibition|url=https://www.borna.news/بخش-%D8%A7%D8%AE%D8%A8%D8%A7%D8%B1-58/244740-%DA%A9%D8%A7%D8%B1%DA%AF%D8%A7%D9%87-%D8%A2%D9%85%D9%88%D8%B2%D8%B4%DB%8C-%D8%AA%DA%A9%D9%86%D9%88%D9%84%D9%88%DA%98%DB%8C|access-date=19 June 2020|website=Borna News Agency|language=fa}}
Sokhandan uses improvisation to conduct his first design. Due to the novelty of the field of op arts, the early works of Sokhandan did not attract public attention. Still, over time and with the publication of photos of his works on social networks, this art style received more attention than before in Iran, especially in advertising and entertainment.
In 2015, Saleh Sokhandan established an art group named Mr. Op Art, including experts in this area. They have been experiencing designing Optical illusions since 2011.{{Cite web|date=30 September 2016|title=آشنایی با هنر خطای دید + تصاویر|trans-title=Understanding the art of illusion + Pictures|url=https://www.ana.press/news/121986/|access-date=19 June 2020|website=ana.press|language=fa}}File:Saleh-sokhandan (3).jpg

In 2018, Roya Park, the first Optical illusion in Iran,{{dubious|date=June 2022}} was established under the observation of Sokhandan and designed by him and native experts and designers of an artistic engineering team. Some traditional Iranian signs in departments of this structure, like the magic carpet, Arash, Simurgh, and Asiatic cheetah, lead to an exciting feeling of being native-born for visitors.{{Cite web|title=گشتی در "پارک رویاها"ی تهران|trans-title=Patrol in the "Roya Park" in Tehran|url=http://jamejamdaily.ir/newspaper/item/32882|access-date=1 September 2021|website=Jam-e Jam|language=fa}}{{Cite web|date=13 April 2019|title=گزارشی از نخستین پارک جادویی ایران؛ "رویا پارک"؛ چالشی برای حواس پنجگانه/جایی برای عکسهای متفاوت|trans-title=A report on the first magic park in Iran; "Dream Park"|url=https://ccia.tehran.ir/default.aspx?tabid=101&ArticleId=5339|access-date=7 September 2021|website=مرکز ارتباطات و امور بین الملل شهرداری تهران|language=fa-IR}}
