This visual example shows an ambiguous relationship between the figure/ground. The figure is enmeshed with the ground making it difficult for the viewer to immediately find a focal point of the piece which lacks discernible dominance. There is much less positive space present and the heavy use of negative space also serves as the background causing it to dominate the relationship. This lack of tension also makes it difficult to easily read. where there are highlights on the letters it gives the figure depth from the ground and an aspect of dimension although it does not stand out completely on its own. Because the cropping and framing is tight but also has some margin around the text my eye immediately starts to follow the figure down from the top. Although the text seems to blend into the ground at times the flow and the connection of the letters makes it easy to follow.
