Title thesis:
You need chaos to give birth to a dancing star.
Subject:
The list of famous artists, performers and politicians who have ended their own lives is alarmingly high.
I wonder whether there really is a demonstrable connection between mental disorders and the creative brain.
Creative people start their creative process from intuitive perception; testing reality is an important component in the process of achieving the final result. This is completely different during a psychosis, in which a person becomes overwhelmed by their intuition and lack of reality.
According to Friedrich Nietzsche mental chaos is exactly what is needed in order to reach great heights.
"Can I take your picture?"
"No"
"Why not?"
"Because if my Mom sees the photo then she’ll cry."
"What does she know about your situation?"
"Nothing. She thinks I have a job. She doesn’t know that I’ve been sleeping rough for the last three years."
"Can I draw you instead?"
"OK."
