Dear,/Hello?

Dear,/Hello? is a project born out of a desire for direct engagement with other people’s work. I want to create a dialogue, or at least to catalogue, my responses to art.

Sounds wanky – it’s not meant to be. I just want a place to put all the things I think and feel when I respond to something.

Although I may very well go ahead and break them, these are the suggested guidelines I’ve given myself to get the ball rolling:

The aim is to encourage dialogue between the viewer and the artists.
Responses could be:

• Collaborative – extending upon the ideas the works put forth
• Responsive – giving feedback, critical evaluation or opinion
• Conversational – addressing the artist or the work directly
• Format does not need to be uniform
