This sample shows a strong contrast between the drawn rectangles. The combination of the color black and white let them look in their composition hard and strong. One reason for the visual perception is that both colors are opposite to each other in the color theory.
An example for the appearance of shapes through additional forms that are not actually closed, but support the impression of a closed form in between them.
Because our eyes always try to see shapes, we can see a shape without it being fully closed. In this example a corner is missing. Can you still see the triangle?

This sample shows a static grid with horizontal lines. The lines on the top of the square are the longest. The lines on the bottom of the square are the shortest. They built together a triangle. In the middle of the square is another small triangle that built the same image that is built before.

The figure suggests that there is a ball which moves in front of two lines. One end of each line and the ball are connected to the position of the mouse. mouuse
In this example you see some planets moving around. Two of them belong together. We make a connection between them because they move the same speed and into the same direction. Our brain immediately sees them as an integrated whole.

Every frame a circle is drawn with a new position. It is always connected to the center of the picture and moves in form of a spiral. The law of regularity means that if neighboring objects repeat in patterns, the human eye will recognize them as groups.
