Author name: Meg Dunley, Creativity Coach

In the latest of my interviews with creatives series, I chat with visual artist + writer Sam Moe on braiding stories, finding inspiration through self-archival work and speculative memoir, and writing recklessly for yourself rather than for others

Catch up on the interviews with creatives filmmaker Su Hudson and site-specific dance artist Naomi Elizabeth Montoya on creating work inspired by landscapes and domestic spaces, finding your creative tribe, and doing what you love rather than chasing financial success.

Visual artist Michael Manning on piecing together modern identity through found imagery, asking good questions to find answers, and building collections of colours and textures through magazines and discarded materials.

Multidisciplinary artist Mary Powell on exploring various media, embracing messiness and spontaneity in the creative process, and gravitating towards whatever captures her interest in the moment

Interviews with creatives: Children’s book illustrator Maddie on creating respectful stories for kids using animal allegory, remaining curious through sketchbook practice, and making art for the joy of expression rather than perfection.
