A lot of artists had been debating which is better between the two. Before going to that, let's get a brief meaning to the two terms on my own accords.
Perceptual: -
1. What you perceive with your sensory; which in this case, your sight.
2. You draw what you look or what you see.
3. Multiple interpretations when observed.
Conceptual -
A concept, an idea. Something that was thought / planned before hand before executing the final result. However, it is important not to confused the work's concept with the artist's intentions.

So basically, by able to get a grasp of the terms, I made a quick surface conclusion that Perceptual Art stimulates the eyes (sensory), for example, with illusion of movement and the harmony of colour while Conceptual Art sparks thought process. It is vital to understand this key concept as it is part of the basic cores that we need to take note in order to create a design that is not deemed only as a mere drawing. In my own views, I think it's best to combine both approach (if possible) to create an interesting design. More research on definitions of the terms and multiple artworks need to be made to allow me to have better understanding of the two terms.
