DSDN111: Figure Ground Study

0 Comments
I have always found figure ground relationship very confusing so I thought now would be the perfect time to break it down and learn about it. I have been looking at some images that are more complex examples of figure ground studies, because I can understand the simple ones. The simple ones are easy to understand what is going on because of the obvious light/positive space and the dark/negative space creating the figure ground relationship.

 This image is a good example of how using a contrast of black and white defines the foreground and background of the shape within the pattern. This is particularly helpful to help me understand a drawing that has a figure ground relationship but is also three dimensional.

 Other examples of figure-ground studies:

I am a designer, currently studying Design Innovation at Victoria University of Wellington. My focus areas are website and mobile media development, interaction design, 3D modelling and animation and audio-visual space. My blog shows my journey through each project as well as my learning experience through university. What do I want to be when I grow up? I have no idea. But I love what I'm learning. Although there have been many bumps along the road in this journey and despite the fact that there are going to be many more, I wouldn't have it any other way.
