So we've been asked to write a "Design Persona" statement. And if you're like me, you're having trouble trying to sum yourself up in 300 words. Well it may please you to know that we're not alone in this.
The Walker Art Centre is a famous contemporary art museum and institution in Minneapolis that also has a number of blogs. One of these was a guest blog (a blogger by the name of KDD) where one of the institution's design candidates was asked to write an artists statement - and had trouble with capturing the true essence of himself as an artist.
"I decided to reach out to practicing designers whose work I admired by posing the following question:
Is there such a thing as a “designer statement,” and if so, how would you go about creating one?" - KDD
The responses to he received to this question come from artists in all fields in the arts - Graphic Designers, Performing Artists, Painters, and more, and cover many different perspectives on what it means to be an artist. I think you'll find their opinions most interesting
If you want to check out the blog there are multiple parts. You can view the first part here
Good luck for Monday!
