Unity: Proximity

Advertisements

This piece is a good example of unity through proximity. This would have been a much less interesting and unified piece if the circles in his piece had been scattered around instead of grouped in similar locations. By using proximity, he creates focal points and larger objects out of the smaller ones, creating more interest.
