A white square in the middle is inserted inside the black square. A white square is a canvas stretched over a tiny stretcher.

I see the essence of any creative personality, as something closed by thick armor from the outside world. The outside world sees only the armor or shell. But inside a person is something very sincere and vulnerable. Creative individuals wanted to be closed from the outside world. They also want to be at the center of this external world, but so that the outside world does not touch them. I feel this paradox in the connections and essence of creative people.
