Sarah Neutkens is a Dutch composer, model, artist and writer and an all-round creative soul, who writes her music inspired by openness and freedom - whether found in spaces, situations or people. We had the opportunity to delve a little deeper and find out more about Sarah’s creative process and what inspires her the most through conversation and a playlist curated for Rodebjer featuring “an eclectic mix of power women” as she put it.
– Does working in different creative mediums help you with your composing process?
It definitely does: I’m terribly bad at just sticking with writing music! Working in different creative mediums helps me to keep as much freedom as possible. If I allow myself to look beyond any horizon, any obstruction, any rule or boundary, I know my music will be free and open, too.
– What do you find the most inspiring?
What I find the most inspiring is trying to completely let go of rational thinking and rules in writing and creating: seeking total openness. Very often it’s also freedom and openness in for example people, situations and spaces that inspire me.
