Abstract
The purpose of this study is to elaborate on the concept of “ambient space,” the space which surrounds and moves with the self. For this purpose, this study focuses on the learning processes of the creation and viewing of art, related to both artists and viewers. Furthermore, we intend to deepen thought about ambient space and reconsider the dichotomy of “figure and ground.” Through a workshop at an art museum, we showed that by stepping up from the logical type of figure-ground reversal perception - the figure-figure switch - the ground-ground switch, the perception of surfaces’ layouts, can be perceived.
