소설 ‘라이오네스 (The Forrests) ‘, ‘내 아내에 관한 소설’로 잘 알려진 작가 에밀리 퍼킨스 (Emily Perkins) 는 최근 ‘급진적 야생성과 상상력’의 중요성을 강조하는 연설을 했다.이 행사는 테 투무 토이 예술재단과 크리에이티브 뉴질랜드가 주최한 ‘올 인 포 아트 (All in for Arts) ‘라는 전국적인 이벤트 시리즈의 일부였습니다.

퍼킨스는 어린 시절 열렬한 독서를 하다가 수상 경력에 빛나는 작가가 되기까지의 여정을 들려주었습니다.그녀는 책에 대한 애정을 표현했는데, 책이 상상력을 자극하고 감정을 이해하는 데 도움이 됐다고 했다.퍼킨스는 책이 편안함과 탈출구를 제공할 뿐만 아니라 독자들을 슬픔, 상실, 생존과 같은 가혹한 현실에 노출시킬 수 있다고 믿습니다.

그녀는 예술을 우선시했던 고등학교와 무상 고등 교육을 받은 것을 예술가로서의 성공으로 꼽습니다.퍼킨스는 예술 분야에서 경력을 쌓는 데 있어 접근성, 교육, 재정 지원이 중요하다는 점도 인정했다.

퍼킨스는 전쟁, 대량 학살, 기후 재해와 같은 현재의 세계적 문제를 다루었고, 이 어려운 시기를 헤쳐나가기 위해서는 급진적인 상상력이 필요하다고 강조했습니다.그녀는 예술과 창의성이 평생 살아가는 데 필수적이며 모든 사람의 일상적 삶의 일부가 되어야 한다고 믿습니다.

그녀는 또한 예술가들이 재능과 헌신에도 불구하고 생계를 유지하기 위해 고군분투하는 모습을 강조했습니다.퍼킨스는 크리에이티브 뉴질랜드 (Creative New Zealand), 예술재단 (Arts Foundation) 같은 단체에 더 많은 지원을 요청했고, 예술에 대한 동등한 접근성을 보장하기 위한 보편적 기본 소득을 주장했습니다.

퍼킨스는 얼론 (Alone) 이라는 리얼리티 서바이벌 쇼에서 얻은 의견도 공유하면서 가장 성공한 참가자가 가장 창의적인 참가자인 경우가 많다는 점을 지적했습니다.그녀는 현재 세계가 직면한 도전에 직면한 상황에서 창의성이 절실히 필요하다는 점을 강조하며 연설을 마쳤습니다.

‘All in for Arts’ 이벤트 시리즈는 아트 재단과 크리에이티브 뉴질랜드가 공동으로 진행했습니다.
