The harmony of physical beauty and inner harmony. External beauty only exists for a flicker of a second, and disappears when we turn the page. Inner beauty lingers, creates a memory Just like the artists that inspired the layout of this story: Cy Twombly, David Salle , Mark Rothko and Not Vital. Their works I always want to come back to.
