Seeing the "negative space" in science

No, I'm not referring to outer space, but something else known as negative space. You have most likely seen this picture, or something like it, at some point in your life:


What did you see? A vase? Two people talking to one another? Or both?

The point of these exercises is to be shown what you're not really seeing, even though it is right in front of you! In scientific inquiry, this relates to critical thinking skills and the ability to analyze and constructively explore.

Here are two logos - each has at least one image within the image. Explore the negative space and practice your ability to see beyond the obvious! What do you see?
