Clémentine Segard: I don't think that brands need to speak necessarily to everyone. They need to unite around communities that recognize itself in the values that they carry

Dima Kashtalyan: I am deeply interested in the future. I worry that the old systems of interaction between countries and people have become outdated and stagnant

Sam van Zoest & Sarah van Ierlant: It’s encouraging to see that, even amid social and political crises, there are always groups or individuals who choose to do the right thing

Karen Stone: Organisations don’t transform, people do and people run on habits. So we need to know how to update our habits

Andy Budd: While these AI-driven tools can be incredibly powerful, they also run the risk of leading us into narrow avenues of thinking

The art of being and understanding limits at Sauna Fest. Lisa Kricfalusi & Nick McNaught: Humans tend to operate on a very fear-based, survival-based level. We teach people how to operate on a curiosity level

Daniel Jones: Write about what you want to discover about where you're from or who you are. But you want to write with curiosity, not knowledge

Cases from 28 Ukrainian creative agencies featured in the new edition of the international digest CrUAtivity

Novomyr Logvin: I get ideas by looking at different interesting things and then dreaming about how I can translate them into jewelry

Ben Okri: Poetry requires the strategy of a warrior. For poetry is also warfare. It is the warfare of beauty and truth

Peter Conrads: The purpose is to feed the soul, to cultivate your inner gardens, to find your inner self and to have fun

Marko Brajovic: We need to enlarge our perception, solidarity and finally design spaces for other species

Bruno da Rocha: My love affair with jewelry has not changed over the decades, and I feel lucky that I’m still inspired to make jewels

Khatuna Khundadze: I love good cinema and it doesn't matter whether it was a woman or a man who made the film. But I'm still happy when I find out at the end that the filmmaker was a woman

Barbara Soalheiro: I’m usually looking for the essential and truthful. Sometimes that leads us to building an entire gym facility in 5 days. Or reproducing a rainbow artificially onto a landscape

Lior Steinberg: We built our cities around the car, and now it’s very difficult to reverse the trend. This is probably the biggest challenge in creating greener, more livable cities

Ludmila Cvikova: We try to make a combination of films that would reflect on what’s going on in the contemporary world, what worries or interests people, what connects us as human beings

Thomas Kolster: When every brand is pitching itself as Mother Teresa or Gandhi, who can be believed?

Ana Pinhal: I can heal some of my wounds while I'm singing. By the interpretation and music, I can put myself in another body and emotions, just like an actress

Michael Bird: We made “Bears Uncovered” to get as close as possible to the truth. We didn’t make this film to be liked, and we succeeded

Julia Kochetova: My photography is a document. The most horrific war crime and the most dignified resistance

Martha Echevarria: In these times, photo stories serve as a crucial tool for fostering understanding and motivating individuals and communities to work towards a more just world

Lee-Ann Olwage: It is a great responsibility. We become the guardians of the stories entrusted to us

Yuko Shimizu: Art and design do not solve wars or save the world, but they make the world worth living

Jobi Manson: My work explores how our environment shapes our experience, and we become what we absorb

Matthias Hillner: Design is a process, but also a reflection of the cultural heritage of a society. Cultural developments need to be initiated and carried through groups of people, not individuals

Alexander Manu: As we continue to forge ahead in this design journey, it is imperative that we maintain a dialogue between our historical inheritances and the new frontiers opened by technologies like Generative AI

Alex Michaelides: Writing is a craft. You can learn it. I do. I don't think I was very good for a very long time
