Assignment: Gestalt

Using your sketches as a starting point (emphasis on STARTING PONT) create 4 black and White (no value) designs illustrating the principles of gestalt...

  • Similarity
  • Proximity
  • Continuation
  • Closure
Hmmm... what about Figure/Ground? You need to apply figure ground to each of these so that they have equal visual weight of black and white.

After you have created the designs, make second negative of each (so what is black becomes white and white becomes black). They should be matted side by side touching each other on the long ends, and have about 1 inch between each of the principles.

Size 2" x 4"
Medium: your choice
Matted: one mat board for the assignment, principles should be labeled. (No more handwriting)

Note: Presentations is critical.... no more rough edges, sloppy cutting, glue spots, smudges, etc., etc.,
