“Abstraction is the process of simplifying complex reality by focusing on essential qualities, removing irrelevant details, and creating general concepts or models, it’s about seeing the: idea” of something (like a ball) rather than a specific one (a leather soccer ball). It’s used in thinking (abstract ideas), art (nonrepresentational forms).” – AI overview
