Embracing the Fertile Void
from In Ten Years Time
In series 3 of the podcast we are looking at the theme of amplifying. In this episode, Tricia discusses the ‘fertile void’. But what is it, and why is it so important? Often we get so caught up in the endless cycle of creating, that we forget that taking rest is crucial to creativity. Inspired by Gestalt theory, Tricia talks through the different stages of the process, and why the in-between moments are a must for living a creative life. How do we resist the pull of everything that demands our attention every day? And is it really that easy to do nothing?
