Rules of Perceptual Organization: Proximity


The rule of proximity states that objects that are near each other appear to be grouped together. In this picture, the brain sees one large group of 16 goldfish, and 2 separate groups 8 goldfish. This is due to the space in between the right cluster of 16 goldfish. The gap causes our brain to categorize them as separate 2 groups.
