Statements are challenging!
- Many artists dread writing these statements, we all got into this field to make visual statements, not written ones!
- Not only do many artists struggle to articulate themselves verbally, writing truly is a skill that takes experience and training to do well.
- On top of that, it’s often unclear exactly what to include in a statement. A lot of program applications have little or vague directions of what to write about.
