S01E04 - Everyone's Creative... Right? - Talking about Accessibility and Crafting
In this episode of 'Everyone's Creative...Right?', host Julie Fernandez speaks with two talented everyday creatives—Hannah and Lore—who have adapted their creative processes to overcome physical challenges. Hannah, a painter and digital artist, shares how she tailors her workspace and tools to accommodate her physical needs, allowing her to continue creating both traditional and digital art. Lore, a mixed media artist, discusses how chronic illness has influenced her approach to creativity, choosing manageable projects like upcycling, needle-felting, and mixed media that fit her energy levels.
Together, they explore the themes of accessibility, adaptation, and the powerful impact that creativity can have on emotional well-being. Their stories are a testament to how creativity is for everyone, no matter the obstacles they face, and how the creative process can be both empowering and healing.
Highlights:
- Hannah’s journey of adapting her art-making process to overcome physical limitations.
- Lore’s approach to creativity through small-scale crafting and upcycling, influenced by her chronic illness.
- The mental health benefits of creative expression for people living with physical challenges.
- How creativity, adaptation, and accessibility intersect to make art possible for everyone.
Key Quote:
“Adaptation is part of creativity—sometimes it’s about making the space and tools fit your needs, not the other way around.” – Lore
