Write a letter to an artist. This artist may be alive, or not. They might be on our syllabus, or someone whose work has moved you. They can work in any medium. What would you want to communicate to them, what would you want them to know?
This letter might express love for their work. You might share a story about what this work means to you.
Or maybe you hate the work — maybe it’s a film that drives you nuts. A painting, a song, or photograph that bothers you. What would you say to the artist? If you are going to write from bad feelings, think about what you can own — what would you put in a letter that you’d sign?
