EP 226: Redefining Spaces and Minds: The Creative Synergy of Visual Storytelling with Natalia and George

The Jens Heitland Show - Human Innovation

In this episode I am joined by two incredible visionaries from the world of design and visual storytelling.

First up, we have Natalia Talkowska, the award-winning founder of Natalka Design. As a six-time TEDx Speaker and global strategic communications specialist, Natalia is reimagining the ways businesses captivate and compel. With the groundbreaking Doodleledo movement under her belt, she has revolutionized team building and empowered non-artists across 25 countries. Her clientele spans the British Government, the Royal Family, and top-tier FTSE100 brands. With over a decade in the industry, Natalia has made waves as a Creative and Art Director, Visual Innovator, and a distinguished guest lecturer at Central Saint Martins and Imperial College.

Joining Natalia is the incomparable George Berlin, an award-winning director known for his unparalleled aesthetic. George's projects are a testament to his knack for storytelling on a grand scale. From painting love stories on Sydney's facades to bringing Frida Kahlo's passion to life on the world's largest permanent digital display, his work is both enthralling and captivating. He has showcased his expertise on some of the world's most prestigious stages, from Romania's iMapp Bucharest Winners League of Projection Mapping to wowing audiences at BLINK Cincinnati, America's largest light festival.

We delve deep into the world of visual storytelling with the talented Natalia and George. While Natalia's doodles engage minds visually, translating abstract information into tangible visuals, George's work transforms spaces, urging people to engage uniquely and innovatively. Together, they emphasize the essence of creativity, not just in what we see but in the entire process leading up to it. Both experts stress the importance of strategic innovation and the power of visuals in changing perceptions. Join us as we uncover the profound impact of visuals on human behavior, the importance of strategic questioning, and how everyone, at their core, is innately creative.
