In a large rectangular art gallery, there are partitions set up to display various pieces of artwork. These partitions create a series of smaller, rectangular regions within the larger space, but do not reach the ceiling--there is a gap of space above them. One day, a group of friends--Xiomara, Kadir, and Leandro--visit the gallery. Each friend is intrigued by different types of art and they split up to explore the gallery individually. Xiomara moves to the northern section of the gallery where abstract art is displayed. Kadir is fond of impressionist paintings and heads to the eastern part of the gallery. Leandro is captivated by sculptures, which are placed in the southern section.

The partitions are arranged in such a way that an observer at any given point can only have direct line of sight to the artworks in their immediate vicinity. Furthermore, the partitions block the view of the other sections unless one is standing at specific vantage points where the aisles intersect.

Xiomara, who is quite tall, realizes that by standing on her tiptoes, she can just see over the tops of the partitions and catch a glimpse of some of the artworks in the adjacent sections, but not entirely into the other regions. Meanwhile, Kadir, who is located in the eastern section, finds himself at an intersection of aisles. He can see straight across to the opposite side of his region, but the view into the northern and southern sections is obscured by the partitions, except where the aisles from those sections intersect with his.

Leandro, absorbed in observing the sculptures, is not aware of the positions of his friends. However, he hears Xiomara's laughter from the northern section and Kadir's muffled clapping from the eastern section, indicating to him that they are both still in the gallery, although he cannot see them.

Given this situation, if Kadir decides to move towards the northern section to meet Xiomara while she is still on her tiptoes, and Leandro simultaneously decides to walk towards the eastern section where Kadir was originally, what could each person see as a result of these movements? Assume that each person walks at a leisurely pace, that Kadir does not go on his tiptoes, and that all friends remain oblivious to each other's exact location except for what could be seen and heard as described.
As Xiomara, the tallest friend, stands on her tiptoes in the northern section of the gallery, she can peer over the partitions and see some of the art in nearby sections, although her view is limited. The partitions obstruct a complete line of sight into other sections, and she cannot see her friends, Kadir and Leandro, who are in different sections of the gallery.

When Kadir moves from the eastern section toward the northern section to meet Xiomara, he does so by traversing the aisles. Lacking the height advantage of Xiomara and not being on tiptoes, he would primarily see the art within his line of sight: the impressionist paintings on his way out of the eastern section and some abstract art as he approaches the northern section. As he moves out of the eastern section, his field of vision broadens and he can now see down the intersecting aisles. However, Kadir's view into the southern section would still be obscured by partitions until he reaches the intersection that provides a line of sight into that area.

At the same time, Leandro decides to walk toward the eastern section where Kadir was. As he heads out of the southern section, he would not immediately see Kadir, since Kadir has already moved out of that section. As Leandro approaches the eastern region, he might catch a glimpse of Kadir's back if they are within the same aisle and Kadir has not turned a corner yet. As Leandro entered the intersecting aisle, he may also see some of the artwork that Kadir was admiring earlier, but again, his direct view of Kadir would depend on the timing and his position relative to the intersecting aisles.

If Xiomara were to stay on her tiptoes while Kadir approaches and Leandro moves towards where Kadir was, here is what could occur regarding visibility:

- Xiomara potentially could see the top of Kadir's head once he enters the northern section or if he stands at the intersection that allows a clear line of sight from Xiomara's vantage point. Her elevated height and positioning would give her a slight visibility advantage over the partitions.
- Kadir would likely have his eyes on Xiomara's section as he moves, but he would only be able to see her if their paths intersect or if he also stands on tiptoes at an intersecting aisle, which is not assumed here.
- Leandro, upon reaching Kadir's original location or the intersecting aisles, could potentially see Kadir or Xiomara if they both happen to be within the same line of sight down an aisle. However, his view of Xiomara would be less likely given her position in a different section and her greater height which could allow her to stand unseen behind a partition that Leandro cannot see over.

Importantly, the friends' ability to see each other depends heavily on the intersections of the aisles, their respective heights, and the layout of the partitions. Thus, visibility between them would be intermittent and mostly limited to glimpses as they navigate the intersections of the aisles within the gallery space.
