CREATIVE PROCESS || WE MAKE IT MORE DIFIFCULTY THAN IT WAS NEEDED TO BE

There are situations where we overload ourselves with so many expectations and obligations regarding what we are idealizing that we can become paralyzed even before we start.

We must be careful that the demands do not become a reference point and become a problem. Where we place ourselves in a position where any creation, no matter how simple, becomes torture. When these demands become too exhausting, if not unrealistic to be met, the act of creating becomes painful to do.

Creating needs to have a certain lightness, slowing down, focusing your attention only on what needs to be considered at a given stage of the creative act. Avoiding creating problems makes the process rigid, because creating always requires starting from a blank canvas with nothing and gradually building visual and conceptual relationships to form something, an image. Both relationships require effort. If we have a creative process that makes it difficult for us, continuing to create becomes painful to maintain.
