The Art Of Negative Space.

Negative Space - The space around and between the subject(s) of an image. Negative space may be most evident when the space around a subject, and not the subject itself, forms an interesting or artistically relevant shape, and such space is occasionally used to artistic effect as the “real” subject of an image. The use of negative space is a key element of artistic composition.

When it comes to graphic design, negative space isn’t anything to be ignored.  I’m not a graphic designer, but as I’m said many times before, I hang out with them all the time, so I’m well aware of some of the fundamentals of the art.  Negative space is a good way to draw attention to the focal point of the (or lack there of) with any piece.  This collection by Tang Yau Hoong demonstrates perfectly a mastery of using negative space to create super dope pieces.  Check the method below.
