Synopsis

The word 'artist' has many connotations – most of them unhelpful to the scores of people who are driven to create and make art every day. Artists (and their lifestyles) are shrouded in mystery and thought of as 'cool', 'different', or 'elite'. As if artists belonged to some special club that mere mortals are not allowed to join. But the simple truth is this: if you make art, then you are an artist. That's all there is to it. Curious about how difficult it is for artists to claim the title of ’Artist’, Elinor Trier invited 27 working artists to share their thoughts and feelings about the word, and how they were finally able to claim it for themselves. The contributors include illustrator Jennifer Orkin Lewis (Augustwren), co-founder of Sketchbook Skool Koosje Koene, and multidisciplinary artist Claire Brewster.
