I believe the answer is: occipital lobe

occipital lobe is the center of visual processing that exist within our brain. When people obtain an input from our visual sensory, we will send it to the occipital lobe and the input would be processed in and resulted in the awareness of what the object is. Damages in this area would make people falsely interpret what they see with another object.
