About the Theme

This theme can be interpreted broadly to explain creative processes, innovation, science or science fiction. Questions to consider:

  • Is creativity a gift given only to a chosen few? Or is there creativity within everyone waiting to be developed?

  • Are there really any truly original ideas?

  • Can you study, practice and refine your creative skill?

  • Do artists have more curiosity, tenacity, intelligence or a greater ability to retain large amounts of information?

  • Are artists more willing to experiment, push new limits, challenge conventions and connect knowledge in other fields and current events?
