Creativity Decoded

Being creative is like being a child. A child is always curious about everything; it’s because his/her mind is simple and pure. Creativity comes from being curious about what’s around you and constantly asking “Why”. - Lisa Park (Artist)

"Creativity is the processing of the foreign and familiar to initiate  a spark or connection that engages with people beyond a normal level,  replacing their out-of-date memories with new ones." - Guy Shield (illustrator/designer/motion graphics animator)

"Creativity is using your natural resources to connect the dots. It's throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks. It's being vulnerable, and allowing yourself to be wrong, or fail to develop what sometimes only the mind can manufacture... but usually that's just a result of being pressed for time." - Samara Shuter (Artist)

"Creativity is expressing the childishness in you.  Being as honest as frank, as curious and open, and as free as you can be" -  Nokulunga Mateta Phiri ( Creative Nestlings project manager) "Creativity is looking at things from a different view, trying, failing and finding beauty in the whole process, it is dangerous but beautiful and should be taken with a pinch of salt.  Its a way of life, unique to both the sender & receiver" -  Dillion S. Phiri ( Creative Nestlings project manager)

"Creativity is a necessity. It is what helps humanity to move forward.  Being creative is trying to imagine and making concrete ideas, dreams or emotions . Scientists, writers, philosophers, painters, photographers, designers, musicians etc..  They all need to be creative to cure or innovate, or to make people think or feel. Creativity is what make us more than just a human body , it exhales the infinite potential of a human brain." -  Milan Vukmirovic (creative director/fashion photographer/style icon)

"Creativity is always taking the jump, constant motion,  two second decision making, and pure unbridled confidence faking." -  Phillip Annand ( Maker of Things/creative director of Madbury Club )

" Creativity is a powerful gift ,to handle with care " - Jean Philippe Kalonji (illustrator/painter/comic artist and writer)
