Unearthing the story
in your work and process
Art is profoundly difficult, profoundly demanding, profoundly generous and profoundly rewarding.
We can help you display your work with that profundity revealed to create a rewarding relationship with your audience.
What we do
The Wonderbook helps an artist to identify the stories that are resident in their creative process; from inspiration to action, genesis to completion. There are numerous aspects which can be expanded to reveal philosophy and intentions.
We help describe these conversations and present them in a way that illuminates a piece of work in the audience mind, short-circuiting the modern social propensity to pass over something if it is too difficult. We allow room to pause and absorb these stories to connect with the artwork more intimately.
