Negativity Used Correctly

Noma Bar is a graphic designer who uses negative space to create optical illusions. The clean lines in his artwork are a refreshing contrast to the complex issues he is typically poking fun at. His subject matter covers a range of topics from sex, global warming and nuclear warfare to religion, crime and corporate greed

In May 2009 he created a Limited Edition cover of Esquire (pictured above). His works are often featured in highly praised print publictions like-The Observer, The Economist and Wallpaper.

His book "Negative Space" is set to release on amazon in August 2009.

I love his use of color- only adding subtle pops throughout each individual piece.

Maybe I love it because it reminds me of that "Young Woman" optical illusion they used to teach us about in highschool?? (pictured below)
