Artist Statement An artist statement is a written conversation the artist has with the audience. While your audience will develop thoughts and ideas based on what they see in your work, the artist statement is your opportunity to tell the audience what you want them to see or what you believe to be true about the topic you studied. Your artist statement should include three components: what, how, why (although not necessarily in this order).
