Negative space may be most evident when the space around a subject, not the subject itself, forms an interesting or artistically relevant shape, and such space occasionally is used to artistic effect as the "real" subject of an image.

Shigeo Fukuda was a celebrated twentieth century sculptor, graphic artist and poster designer who also created efficacious optical illusions. An interesting thing about his artwork is that they usually depict deception. M. C. Escher 17 June 1898 – 27 March 1972, was a Dutch graphic artist. He is known for his often mathematically inspired woodcuts, lithographs, and mezzotints. These feature impossible constructions, explorations of infinity, architecture, and tessellations.
Kara Walker is a contemporary African- American artist who explores race, gender, sexuality, violence and identity in her work. She is best known for her room-size of black cut- paper silhouettes.
"The history of America is built on . . . inequality, this foundation of a racial inequality and a social inequality," the artist has said. "And we buy into it. I mean, whiteness is just as artificial a construct as blackness is." The murals present Walker's pictorializations of slavery - the transport of slaves, the slave ship, Southern plantation life - as she imagines it to have been. And in these images, at once fantasy and fantastical, Walker explores the origins of racism in America today. Some people choose to boycott the gallery shows of Kara Walker.
