IN-PERSON and VIRTUAL LECTURE: Tues, October 7: 9:30 am (CT): Family as Creative Inspiration
Creativity often feels like such a mysterious process. How do ideas emerge? Where does inspiration come from? How does an artwork begin and then unfold into a series? And how does what we create take on meaningfulness?
Mirka will speak to these questions through the various experiences and challenges that have led her work to become more and more personally and universally relevant over time. She is now at the point of focusing on what she considers will likely be the most meaningful project of her life—her family’s history—and thus her most fulfilling endeavor.
The presentation will include examples of how the creative process can evolve and invite the audience to consider what is meaningful for them to pursue and how they might go about it.
