"Representational" "Abstract" and "Symbolic" Shapes

Representational = You can clearly determine what is being portrayed.

Abstract = You can determine what is being portrayed when the image is paired with meaning and the image can possibly be interpreted multiple ways.

Symbolic = You recognize the object being portrayed because it is a part of your cultural framework.

According to the reading it all depends on perception.
I agree.
It depends on your cultural surroundings, your generation and your interests.
