" Truly imaginative visual work Is extremely important in society. Just in the way that I’m inspired by books, and magazines of all kinds, conversations I have, movies, so I also think when I put visual work out there into the mass media — work that is interesting, unusual, intriguing — work that maybe opens up that sense of inquiry in the mind — that I’m seeding the imagination of the populous. And you just never know who is going to take something from that and turn it into something else. Because inspiration is cross pollinating. A piece of mine may inspire a playwrite or a scientist or a novelist, and that in turn may be the seed that inspires a doctor or a philanthropist or a babysitter. And this isn’t something you can quantify or track or measure..." — Marian Bantjes
Yet another great ted talk.
