Expression
What is Expression?
The need to bring something new into existence — through art, writing, building, cooking, or any form of making. Creative expression externalises the inner world and makes the invisible visible.
When you might feel expression
Expression is a specific form of creativity, which itself is a type of meaning. You might experience this feeling in situations where meaning is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define expression.
