BWP has a new online space to connect!
It isn't another social media channel.
It isn't exclusive content or marketing.

Our Patreon is another room inside Black & White Projects—a slower room where conversations continue after the exhibition closes, where artists, neighbors, patrons, and visitors become companions in noticing. We don't gather here to arrive at answers, but to keep good questions alive.

🛠️ Tips & Tricks Tuesday — Artist's Narrative Bio 🛠️

One of the most common questions we get, even from mid-career artists, is "What should be in my bio?"

The short answer is pretty straight forward: who you are and what you do. It's not your artist statement or a history. Think of it as a basic introduction.

We've found this very helpful article online that breaks a basic bio down and even has templates!
https://www.artsume.com/guides/how-to-write-artist-bio

The longer answer is that, over time, and especially for interdisciplinary artists, capturing the entirety of your practice in a basic format can get tricky. In future posts, we'll share more resources on how to take the next step in making your bio authentic and meaningful. But for now, just know, a basic bio like the one in this article will pretty much always be what people are looking for. Keep it simple, keep it succinct, and you're good to go. No tricks needed. 🖤🤍

Write an artist bio that introduces you professionally. Short bio examples, long bio templates, and the difference between bios and artist statements.
