ON REJECTION: UnBound!
Not getting into Unbound! means nothing. Rejection from other competitions, exhibitions, grant proposals… those rejections mean nothing. Yes, getting into a competition is cool, over-the-moon excellent. And we hope that if you get into Unbound4! that you will see that as a genuine compliment. If you get in to this show, we are going to spend our time installing your work, looking at your work, promoting your work, trying to sell it off the walls, maybe end up buying it ourselves, and finally returning it if it isn’t sold. Getting in to this exhibition means we really like your work. Not getting in does not, however, mean the opposite. Not getting in means nothing. We reject a lot, A LOT, of quality work.
