Creativity is a central issue throughout all of Winnicott’s work. In his thinking, creativity stems from the action of finding/creating the object of satisfaction. The author underlines the gap between this point of view and Freud’s point of view about sublimation and questions the role of impulse in this finding/creating issue. He sets it in the introjection of the impulse within the ego needing at first an environment strictly adapted to the infant’s needs, then a progressive distancing of the external object which gives place to the child’s psychic work while being able to resist his destructive attacks, allowing a more profound introjection of the impulse within the ego.
