Creativity is about creating from zero. It is about unconcealing something that has previously been unseen and making it accessible. In this sense it is about risk, imagination and uncertainty. It is an attempt to cut through all the levels that modern human beings in our alienated western society add on to simplicity and essence. All real creative endeavor sets out to reach the most fundamental and the widest human experience without diluting anything. Creative expression at its most effective, most transformational, is maximum impact with minimum means. It leaves the most to the imagination.
