"There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality."
- Pablo Picasso
For something to be abstract, it should be illusive. An abstract piece of art should cause someone to think, hard. They may become confused and they may never truly understand the piece of art. Below is my favourite abstract photograph, it is by Laszlo Moholy-Nagy.
The wikipedia definition of abstraction is "abstraction in its main sense is a conceptual process where general rules and concepts are derived from the usage and classification of specific examples, literal ("real" or "concrete") signifiers, first principles, or other methods."

I have chosen this photograph to represent my understanding of abstraction.
