while it again is certainly reasonable to suggest that having access to a broader range of emotional experiences can positively impact one's creative pallet overall, to suggest that any one particular sub-set of emotions is somehow the universal creativity-killer strikes me as misguided at best |
Yeah, this.
You can be happy and make good art, but it's probably not best for artists to only rely on one set of emotions (for their sake, not ours). |
yeah like the weird quasi-pedestal we collectively put suffering artists atop is only ever to the detriment of those suffering artists we claim to love and support (but let's be honest, everyone who romanticizes, say, Cobain's experience for example is more just infatuated with the idea of Kurt Cobain than anything else. It's really quite bizarre and honestly kinda sickening when you get right down to it)
