Art is about finding creativity in the gutter next to you.

Olafur Eliasson

Danish artist Olafur Eliasson¡¯s sculptures often draw on natural elements, inspired by the unique Scandinavian landscapes of his childhood. In one of his most famous installations (2014-2018), Eliasson teamed up with geologist Minik Rosing to display fragments of an Arctic iceberg in European cities in order to highlight the climate crisis. His art is very much a product of his surroundings ¡ª the ordinary turned extraordinary. Here, Eliasson advises us that our next idea may come from somewhere unexpected; all we have to do is pay attention.

You make your life meaningful by applying meaning to it.

Separator icon
Sheila Heti

Sheila Heti is known for her introspective and experimental storytelling, especially in works such as ¡°Motherhood,¡± the critically acclaimed, semi-autobiographical novel that explores her decision on whether or not to have children. This quote echoes her writing¡¯s broader themes of self-exploration and purpose. Taken from an interview with author Natasha Lunn in Lunn¡¯s book ¡°Conversations on Love,¡± Heti suggests the fabled ¡°¡± to be a nuanced concept ¡ª as she puts it, ¡°[Life is] not just inevitably meaningful as a result of the choices you¡¯ve made.¡± Much like her books challenge traditional narratives, Heti¡¯s quote upends the idea that meaning is inherent ¡ª we must instead each create it for ourselves.
