Write the Artist Statement That Actually Gets You Noticed

Most artists treat their statement like a chore.

A paragraph they “should” write.
A mechanical requirement for grants, curators, and exhibitions.

That’s why most artist statements sound the same: flat, vague, and forgettable.

This guide fixes that.
