    White is my favorite color, to me it represents purity. In this task, I decided to use white colour to highlight its characteristics. I did some experiments, I cut a cardboard box cut it into a framework with plastic wrap and then wrap the entire frame. I think in my last work I will use foam instead of cardboard box, because i want my work have white only. I think inside the box to put a pair of wings, it can be angel also like a holy place.
