Big Juicy Creative - A podcast by Suzy Bashford

Categories:

Artist Claire Macdonald (last week's episode - 82)'s work has really inspired me. She talks about how art is a gateway, for all of us, for understanding, empathy, connection, joy, play, meaning- so many benefits! I want to experience these benefits so, inspired by Claire, I decide in this episode to create an art installation (even though I don't really have a scoobie how to do this) in the woods. She advises me on how to go about doing this, believing that art installations, and art in general, are definitely not just for people that call themselves artists. She also advises: drop the perfectionism and just do it, don't obsess about the outcome because the experience of creating IS the art, and where you reap all these benefits. I thought after a year talking so much about creativity and pushing yourself out your creative comfort zone, I should put my money where my mouth is. This is the start of it. An art installation will be created soon to mark a year of the Big Juicy Creative podcast! Over to you - what are you going to create, so you too can reap all these big juicy benefits of being creative?
