Let’s Create - Qualities - Patient
Patient
A couple of artists mentioned the importance of patience as an underrated quality that is especially important in a co-creative process.
People work at different speeds and it’s important not to rush the process or non-professional artists who may have many competing demands on their time and less training/understanding of the art form.
Quotes from the research
“It’s quite a dry quality, but there's something about patience, something about sort of quietly making sure that there is space for somebody to come forward and sometimes that does just take time and you need patience within yourself. If you imagine being in a room with an impatient leader you can see the importance of that quality. It would shut down creative possibilities quite quickly.”
