1. How does is art considered creative?

• I think art will always be creative; as I believed that art is fluid and is subjective to

everyone’s opinions and views. What’s creative for me may be a bit plain or too dramatic in

other’s eyes. All in all, I think what matters is that art should always convey an emotion and

able to express a story or message for the people to ponder upon.

2. How does art become product of imagination; and

• I think art becomes a product of imagination when we can see things that are otherworldly

or unusual. Like when someone paint a creature with many hands and legs and no belly or

when we can see a thing which does not really exist in the world. It is when an artist dreams

of something they wish to have in their current state and be able to show it in their work.

The focus of this is the artist.

3. How does imagination a product of art?

• I think imagination becomes a product of art when the viewers are able to understand what

the artist has made. It is when you feel the emotions the artist wanted you to feel. It is

seeing the message behind the art. The focus of this is the spectator or viewer of the art.
