One of the potentials of the field is to redefine the relation between figure and ground. If we think of the figure not as a demarcated object read against a stable field, but as an effect emerging from the field itself - as moments of intensity, as peaks or valley within a continuous field - than it might be possible to imagine figure and field as more closely allied.
