Without creative play/ experimentation, we become stagnant. Regularly incorporating creative play into studio practice provides inspiration and innovation. This presentation addresses the following: What is “creative play” in terms of studio practice? Why should we engage in creative play? Who should engage in creative play and when? And most importantly, how can we engage in creative play?
