Answer:

The Gestalt theory states that when an individual sees something(s), their brain has the tendency to organize it. The example given in the article is that when a person sees a flock of birds, they don't look at the birds one by one, they view them collectively. It is not "there's a bird, and another, and another" it's "a flock of birds." The theory uses four categories. First, similarity: when your brain groups things together by their alikeness. Second, proximity: the brain grouping things based on how close together they are. Third, continuity: pattern based. Fourth, closure: this refers to filling in incomplete things with our minds.
