This art work, has a pattern working down the page, strips consisting of a black and grey sort colour, but it is broken by the random two squares placed side by side, not only did they stop the pattern but the fact they contain bright colours inside makes it stand out and look more vibrant when next to the darker colours as they are contrasting off one another. The square too contain strips but one going the other direction then the other, vertically and horizontally. This visually draws attention due to the obscurity of the broken pattern.
