This is called negative space effect. Black paint makes chicken wire near invisible. Black absorbs all light, making the wire non-reflective. When painted, it blends into shadows and becomes nearly undetectable. The dark gaps between the wire start to dominate visually. Your eyes ignore the thin black lines. The negative space takes over. The wire is still there but your brain stops registering it. One simple principle. Perfect optical illusion..
