Choose this if you are not missing materials, but missing direction. We map your practice into a realistic 3 to 6 month pathway.
About this session
A practice-led 1:1 session curated by ELSEHERE to translate your practice into a realistic 3–6 month pathway, including time, location, and income constraints. This is for artists who are not missing materials, but missing direction.
Best for
• You feel pulled in multiple directions and need a roadmap
• You are relocating across cities or countries and need a coherent strategy
• You want long-term positioning, not just one application
• You want to decide what to prioritize, what to pause, and what to build next
You will leave with
• A 1-page Pathway Notes document (3–6 month roadmap)
• A prioritized action list for the next 2 weeks
• Suggested targets (calls, spaces, formats, and people) aligned with your focus
• Optional: 7-day follow-up Q&A (text only, up to 3 questions)
What we do in the session
• Clarify your practice in one sentence
• Identify your ecosystem: where to appear, who to talk to, what to build
• Decide one primary direction plus one secondary option
• Build a plan that is realistic under your constraints
What to prepare
• A draft bio or artist statement (rough is fine)
• Links to 3 recent works or projects
• Your current constraints (time, location, income, visa, care responsibilities, etc.)
• 1–3 questions you want answered
