I am glad you found these posts regarding gestalt principles helpful. As time permits I would like to cover the rest of the gestalt principles to be a resource to others like yourself. The great thing about the principles is that they are beneficial to a wide range of design disciplines. As far as the face on Mars I think that would fall into the law of closure and/or the law of proximity. I think people can look at a variety of images and pick out things that look familiar to them. The image from mars only has bits and pieces that resemble a face, but because of how they are laid out we "recognize" them as a face because our minds are always looking to make sense out of chaos. The same can be true of images found on burnt toast, in the knots on wood, etc. I hope that helps and I hope to provide you with more gestalt principles soon. Thanks Sumedha.
