Sparks of Creativity grew out of a previously chosen topic that had hit a brick wall. Trying everything and still remaining unsatisfied, I shifted my focus to the creative process in general. Creative block is a universal experience among all artists and designers and my project aims to find ways to overcome this and to investigate how other artists and designers work through their creative processes.
Across my outcomes, I appeal to other creatives who are looking to spark an idea and discover more about the creative process. Through risograph printing, my publication is an anthology of research surrounding creativity, including a series of interviews conducted with practising designers as well as examining the work of Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi’s 'Flow States' – the experience of being so absorbed by an engaging, enjoyable task that your attention is completely held by it.
