Artist’s Statement Generator

Next time your gallery dealer asks you for an Artist’s Statement, don’t despair. Instead of sweating over writing one yourself, just use this all-purpose Artist’s Statement Generator.

It’s easy! Choose a line from Column 1, a line from Column 2, and a line from Column 3, stick ‘em together, and you’ll mystify the best of them.

"My recent work is:

Column 1
An exploration of the irreducible act of mark-making...
An investigation of the mimetic process...
An excavation of the inheritance of the past...
A disquisition on our shared narratives...

Column 2
...which seeks to unravel the threads of visual discourse
...which delves into the connectedness of the real and the abstract
...which re-encodes ambiguity and authenticity
...which reveals the undercurrents of ritual

Column 3
...by creating a conversation between color and texture."
...by disjunctively animating it through a process of mimicry."
...by mediating clichés through a retro-nostalgic lens."
...by alluding to tropes of the built environment."
