In this in-depth workshop, come and learn how to write an artist statement and how to build a captivating portfolio. In the first part of the workshop, gain an insight into the way visual artists contextualise their practice in their statements. You will be guided through the basic principles and do's and don'ts and learn how to modify an artist statement depending on its purpose.

In the latter half of the workshop, you will be equipped with the necessary skills and tools needed to build a compelling artist portfolio, one that documents your work and showcases your distinctive artistic style. Bring your own statements and portfolios, which you will have a chance to workshop and edit one-on-one with the instructor.
