    That is brilliant.

    Seriously, if you’ve run across this and are thinking “wtf is this abstract mess?”

    Take a step back, follow the line, then step back again and ignore the line while looking at the shapes. Then step back again and look at the whole. There’s a depth to this that isn’t apparent on the surface.

    It really does exactly what good abstract is supposed to.

      I tried to do what you said but the sheer brightness of the line (especially where it gets thicker towards the top left) makes it harder for me to ignore it
