ART: Introducing Estonian Artist Küllike Pihlap

Küllike Pihlap at her latest exhibition "FOLK".

Having just finished a slew of exhibitions in Estonia with her series of images being described in the media as representing "The Landscape as a Concert Hall" Küllike shares her thoughts on Artists' Creativity and their Audience.

 - Musicians and artists both have the ability to generate innovative ideas and manifest them from thought into reality. The process involves original thinking and then production. Some use instruments, others colors, canvas, pencils, crayons etc.

The process of creation was historically reserved for deities creating "from nothing" in Creationism and other creation myths. But there are others who don't have  the capabilities or desire to create themselves. However, this does not mean that they do not enjoy music or the arts. The audience is important to the artists for generating feedback. Listeners and viewers enjoy the emotional charge, atmosphere and they get a sense of joy from the creative output by for example musicians.

Creative people have a need to create something all the time. It is a need that wants to get out and can not be suppressed. To live a full life, Creatives need to develop their work, deal with it, to experience, to see the results and to communicate with their audience. - Küllike Pihlap.
