Juxtaposition is to place something side by side , especially for comparison or contrast. The condition of a something being side by side or close together will generates our brain to reflect on the meaning and association of the 2 variables. Our brain will try to associate with the variables to find the similarity and the differences. For example, a pretty women walking side by side with an ugly women, a clear interpretation that I can make here is we can clearly see the dissimilarity between the 2 women in terms of beauty but at the same time we know both of them are women. It is a technique intended to stimulate creativity where we try to think of a better explanation on the variables.
Some examples of juxtaposition.

We can see that the girl is lying on her beloved grave, both of the girl and the deceased are human but they are in different condition.

Different type of buildings are in the same place in the same city with different kind of architecture and building structure.
Juxtaposition can be use in any field of work, for me I use it for art and design purpose as I am in the position of being an art student.
