Through the contributions of women working in the creative
industries, this timely book explores the role of creativity in
their lives, the experiences that have positively contributed to
and supported their creativity and their work, as well as how
gendered considerations intersect with their involvement in the
cultural sphere. Spanning psychology, cultural and media studies,
and the philosophy of art, it builds on existing research by
offering examples of the abundance of creativity residing in women
working in film and television, architecture, design, music,
theatre, and the performing and visual arts in Ireland. Their
reflections offer a valuable counter perspective to the assumption
that women are more naturally the 'muse' than the creator. From
these conversations, some common, although at times diverging,
experiences in childhood, early career and approaches to their
creative work offer important insights into the nature and practice
of creativity and the conditions that may best nurture and support
creativity in girls and women. Providing original observations into
gendered understandings of creativity, this book will be essential
reading for researchers, advanced students and practitioners
seeking contemporary insights on creativity, feminism and gender.
