Artist/project statements have got to be the most dreaded aspect of photography. I’ve had many conversations with people about particularly bad statements or about how they are supposed to be written. I have some ideas how they might be written, and I’m sure there are many others. After a lot of thinking about it and quite a few hours of writing and editing, I decided to publish the little essay I came up with, hoping that some people might find it useful/helpful.
