Curating is an important part of achieving the extraordinary. Welcoming contributions from others to our creative work can bring it to another level.<\/p>

When photographing Allisons\u2019 house in West London for a magazine editorial, I most enjoyed the colours: the vastness of dark greens comes with all the beautiful plants in the house.<\/p>

Allison told me that she mixes natural and artificial plants. Some of the plants in the house are natural plants that need watering and care. And some are artificial ones that only need the occasional dusting. It was pretty much impossible to tell which were the artificial plants unless you took a closer look.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Curating as in mixing artificial and natural plants<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Combining artificial and natural plants aims to achieve this impressive display of an indoor jungle. Some plants are hard or almost impossible to grow to a satisfying beauty in the lighting conditions and the humidity of a UK living room that is pleasant for humans but not so much for plants with other climate requirements. Would she insist on having only natural plants, Allison would have to settle for less beautiful versions of a lot of her foliage.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

By adding artificial foliage to her \u201cown\u201d grown plants Allison gets a unique and remarkable look that`s still her achievement as the curator of her home.\u00a0 This is so smart. It kind of picks up the idea of curating to achieve something extraordinary. Something that could not be achieved by just allowing our \u201cown grown plants\u201d into the mix.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Not only that we don`t have to do it all by ourselves. But we also can`t if we want the extraordinary. Adding curated ideas elevates our creative work. It can be very smart to take an idea that`s already there and ready-grown \u2013 in combination with our own ideas and input it becomes something entirely new and unique. Like a writer who collects ideas and quotes from others to mix them with his own words and input in order to write something worth reading.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

Most importantly there`s God who can just elevate everything to a whole other level if we include him in the process. God can do what no person can do, HE can give us favour with people and transform situations. Nothing great that we do is just us and our own achievements but it`s accepting and implementing contributions.\u00a0Not trying to do it all by ourselves is a smart move.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

It`s kind of freeing to accept that by being smart about allowing artificial plants into the mix \u2013 plants that we don`t need to water and pamper \u2013 we can elevate our display, and our creative work as a whole.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Was wir von einem Haus voller Pflanzen \u00fcber Kuratieren und unsere kreative Arbeit lernen k\u00f6nnen.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Kuratieren ist wichtig, um Au\u00dfergew\u00f6hnliches zu erreichen. Input von au\u00dfen willkommen zu hei\u00dfen, kann unsere kreative Arbeit auf ein ganz neues Niveau heben.<\/p>

Als ich Allisons` Haus in West London f\u00fcr ein Magazin Editorial fotografiert habe, habe ich mich am meisten \u00fcber die vielen Gr\u00fcnt\u00f6ne um mich herum gefreut, vor allem die der vielen Pflanzen im Haus.<\/p>

Allison hat mir erz\u00e4hlt, dass sie k\u00fcnstliche mit echten Pflanzen mixt: Einige Pflanzen im Haus sind echt und brauchen Wasser und Pflege. Und manche sind k\u00fcnstliche Pflanzen, die nur ab und zu mal abgestaubt werden m\u00fcssen. Es war ziemlich unm\u00f6glich, zu erkennen, welche k\u00fcnstlich sind und welche echt, wenn man nicht ganz genau hinschaute.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Der einzigartige Mix<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Dieser Mix aus echt und k\u00fcnstlich macht diesen beeindruckenden Haus-Dschungel m\u00f6glich. \u201eManche Pflanzen sind schwer, fast unm\u00f6glich, so zu Hause zu pflegen, dass sie ihre volle Sch\u00f6nheit erreichen\u201c, erkl\u00e4rt Allison. Ein Wohnzimmer, das angenehm f\u00fcr Menschen ist, ist nun mal nicht unbedingt ideal f\u00fcr Pflanzen, die andere Klimaverh\u00e4ltnisse brauchen, eine andere Luftfeuchtigkeit oder andere Lichtverh\u00e4ltnisse. Wollte man nur \u201eecht\u201c, m\u00fcsste man bei vielen Pflanzen mit einer weniger prachtvollen Version vorlieb nehmen.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

Erst indem sie k\u00fcnstliche Gew\u00e4chse zu ihren \u201cselbst-gehegt und -gepflegten\u201c Pflanzen mixt, erreicht Allison einen einzigartigen und au\u00dfergew\u00f6hnlichen Look, der ihr eigener ist. Das erinnert mich an die Idee des Kuratierens, um Au\u00dfergew\u00f6hnliches zu erreichen. Etwas, das nicht erreicht worden w\u00e4re, h\u00e4tte man nur seine \u201eselbst-gehegten Pflanzen\u201c in den Mix geworfen.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Nicht nur, dass wir nicht alles selbst machen m\u00fcssen. Wir sollten es auch nicht, wenn wir Gro\u00dfartiges erreichen wollen. Unsere kreative Arbeit wird dann richtig gut, wenn wir ausgew\u00e4hlte Ideen mit aufnehmen und einbeziehen. Es kann sehr klug sein, eine Idee, die schon da ist – fertig gewachsen – mit an Bord zu nehmen. In Kombination mit unseren eigenen Ideen wird diese Idee wieder zu etwas ganz Neuem und Einzigartigem. Wie ein Journalist, der Ideen und Zitate von anderen sammelt, um sie mit seinen eigenen Worten und seinem eigenen Input zu kombinieren, um etwas zu schreiben, dass wirklich lesenswert ist.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

Vor allem Gott kann einfach alles auf ein ganz neues Level heben, wenn wir ihn in den Prozess mit einbeziehen. Mit ihm ist m\u00f6glich, was kein Mensch schaffen kann, er kann Verbindungen erm\u00f6glichen und Situationen ver\u00e4ndern. Wenn wir Au\u00dfergew\u00f6hnliches erreichen, dann ist das nicht ganz allein unser Verdienst, sondern es beinhaltet, Input von au\u00dfen anzunehmen und einzubeziehen. Nicht alles im Alleingang versuchen zu wollen, macht Sinn.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

Es macht uns freier, wenn wir akzeptieren, dass wir mit k\u00fcnstlichen Pflanzen – Pflanzen, die wir nicht hegen und pflegen zu brauchen – unsere kreative Arbeit als Ganzes auf ein h\u00f6heres Niveau bringen k\u00f6nnen.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
