About this talk
Our panel traces the origins of creativity. Great art always begins with an idea. But one of the enduring mysteries of creativity is where these ideas come from. Under an artists' gaze, how might a fleeting thought become a tangible entity, celebrated for a uniqueness alchemised from the world around us? Our panel of artists, writers and filmmakers will consider personal sources of inspiration – whether from observations, obsessions, whimsy or fantasia – and discuss the rich history of artists and thinkers who have stumbled upon their eureka moments.
