ENSO - Tell Us Who You Are Enso is a Japanese word meaning circle, with a concept associated with Zen. It is a symbol of wholeness and cyclic return, leading to enlightenment, the universe and the void. This circle can also sometimes be described as a mirror of its painters -reflecting who you are and what you think or feel now, as you paint it. The minimum expression of this artwork gives you a good opportunity to look back at yourself, and even to find your true self. Be honestly who you are, and draw your own circle.
