ABOUT THE BOOK
'In Hardman’s rigorous intellectual study, I find validation and support for approaches to creativity that do not prioritise idea-led work or the rational brain. It recognises the embodied experience – a fluid way of being; processes that avoid a neat, graspable, linear path by detouring, expanding and tapping into what is unique and deeply personal in each of us. As Hardman says, creative intuition “calls for a more anarchic state of mind in which we tolerate seemingly irrelevant thoughts and hold in our minds possibly conflicting thoughts. It means being comfortable with uncertainty and ambiguity.”
'This book invites artists and teachers to embrace this necessary uncertainty, and it gives us the tools to defend a way of being that resists the rigid confines of so many educational structures. … this text – passionate in its mission – is a gift of encouragement to create learning spaces and experiences where students feel confident to explore beyond rational thought. … ”. Extract from the Foreword by Chloe Briggs, Founder of Drawing is Free www.drawingisfree.org
The teaching of the creative arts in an academic context is relatively complex and may be seen as problematic because the creative process includes both rational and non-rational aspects. The rational aspects of creativity, such as cognitive strategies and skills development, are addressed overtly in university courses, but the non-rational aspects of the creative process, such as intuition and imagination, are often not discussed due to a lack of understanding. Creative intuition, in particular, is seen as 'mystical' and inexplicable, because it is not based on reason or logic.
This book aims to clarify an understanding of the nature of creative intuition through an exploration of psychological and philosophical research on the subject. It is an attempt to demystify how intuition works during the creative process. Key principles underlying creative intuition are presented, as well as suggestions for ways to nurture creative intuition.
The book cover and book inside feature original watercolour images (mostly of an abstract, modernist nature) created by the author herself, who is also an artist.
