This image is an asymmetrical design simply because we could cut this image in half and we would end up with to different separate parts. The white space is activated in this image effectively. The main object that we see first is an illustration of a character playing the saxophone. However, the negative space also becomes part of the illustration because it helps build a musicians face and a saxophone instrument. In the image above there is a incomplete women's face. However, our mind is filling in the missing information which is to complete the formation of a women's face. Our mind starts on by building familiar shapes and images by connecting the negative and positive space. Since the negative space becomes visible and also becomes part of the main illustration (character with saxophone), this means that the white space is been successfully activated because the negative space has been properly placed. The negative space becomes an important element in the composition. This image example doesn't only show an asymmetrical design and activated white space, but it also explains closure very well.
