Noma Bar is an Israeli-born graphic designer, who describes his work as 'visual communication'. Combining the skills of an artist, illustrator and designer to achieve the 'maximum communication with minimum elements'.
I find the way Bar utilises negative space in his images very interesting. At a first glance the viewer sees one main image (e.g. the dog's head) but at closer inspection the viewer sees that multiple images are used to create the whole picture. For example in the second piece the shape that makes up the dog's mouth is the shape of a cat's head, and the shape of the cat's mouth is a mouse's head. These multiple images add extra layers of meaning to the images without overcrowding them.
