i remember doing a project many years ago for geometry class in which we used negative and positive space with one repeated image just like this

i think this is a great, more complex example of positive and negative space and really helped me understand the concept better. I really like how the images in the different spaces are still so closely related.

WOAH!
Very cool.
I love how the horsemen are perfectly complementary AND how the piece is symmetrical - the one detailed white horsemen in the middle is mirrored by the one detailed black one... and I like how the border mirrors itself as well, one predominantly black and one white. NICE.
