Creativity and psychology

The psychology of creativity is the study of what happens inside the maker — the oscillation between openness and structure, the role of unconscious processing, the relationship between emotional life and productive capacity. What research confirms, and what experienced makers already know, is that creative work is not a cognitive function separate from the rest of the person but deeply embedded in their whole psychological life, which is why difficulty in making is rarely purely technical. To understand your own creative psychology is not self-indulgence but maintenance.
