11. Abstraction

Abstraction is the simplification of natural shapes (organic) to their essential, basic character. In this painting, figures are headless but there is an illusion that the circles in the background are their heads. The figures in the background also have circles for heads. Although this is not how an actual human looks, we can still tell what it is through its basic shapes.
