Figure 2: (a) The wiggly small square appears clearly in front of the circle that completes amodally behind it. (b) The square appears as a hole and the circle as a circular sector. The figure-ground effect of the watercolor illusion annuls the role of T-junctions responsible of the amodal completion of shape. If the perception of the hole and its boundaries annuls the amodal completion, then the boundaries belong to the hole. (c) A circular hole, upon a larger square shaped hole, completing amodally behind a solid square is perceived. The watercolor elicits this special result totally in favor of its figure-ground effect but against the one of the amodal completion of shape. (d) A paradoxical effect is perceived: a hole completing amodally behind another hole. (e) A more complex paradoxical effect: A circular hole, upon a larger squared hole, completing amodally behind a squared hole upon a circular hole and a squared hole.
