As the name implies, negative space is a technique in artwork
that focuses on using the empty spaces around the subject of an image.
The concept of negative space is prevalently used in all forms of
artwork including photography, logo designing and general art design.
The idea revolves around the notion that negative or unused space can be
employed to create an appealing or artistically significant shape. In
this way, an artist can form two meanings out of a single artwork. The
first meaning is in the subject of the image while the other evolves out
of the negative space.
