Space is an area that is around or inside an area of substance. When an artist places an abject or form in space a communication between the object and the space is immediately begun.
Positive and Negative Space
All the area’s of 3 dimensional design can demonstrate the relationship between space and substance.
Positive space is not always the focal point of a composition. Negative space can strongly emphasis an area or object in the space of an image.
