Lost and Found ShapesA focus on Negative/Positive Counterchange This sequence is designed to engage Advanced and AP students in an important 2-Dimensional design concept—using counterchange between negative and positive space. In this assignment you will record from observation and transform your sketch into a particular form of spatial design. Look closely at the next slide. Then, write down the first thing you see. Look again for a little while longer…do you see another image? If so, record your observation. Positive/Negative Figure Ground Tell me what you think… What is negative space in a 2 dimensional work of art? Can it be more important that the positive space? Does either space dominate in the previous pictures or are they equally important? Why or why not? Figure Ground defined: When two fields have a common border, and one is seen as figure (a positive shape) and the other as ground (a negative shape), the immediate perceptual experience is characterized by a shaping effect which emerges from the common border of the fields and which operates only on one field or operates more strongly on one than on the other. WHAT?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Who wants to take a stab at explaining what you read? Think for a moment about the preceding pictures. How do images with ? positive and ? negative read? Do these images make you linger in the picture longer in an attempt to discern what you are seeing? Have you seen many drawings that employ equal amounts of positive and negative space? Here is an example of positive/negative design applied to advertising. Can you figure out what this logo stands for? Hint, it is a hockey team. Look closely at the negative space and see if a letter emerges. Hartford Whalers’ Hockey Team Logo To increase your understanding of design and composition, the following project has been developed to: Complete a black-and-white composition based on observation of a still life Demonstrate the use of nega
