Art, Experience, Nature, InventivenessAbstract
The article summarizes a research project aimed at the experience of nature as an impulse to creativity. It is reflected here on the relationship with nature, and the experience of direct contact that manifests a potential that symbolic and indirect experiences cannot provide. This direct contact not only strengthens the connection with nature and increases well-being, but also increases curiosity and invention. This research brings together a set of studies that indicate the nature as capable of evoking creative thinking, making a person more flexible in the way they think and more able to get new ideas. In addition, it helps in the restoration of focused attention, fundamental in the evaluation, and evolution of ideas. Finally, artistic practices are mentioned that ground this issue of nature as a creative promoter.
