Galleries Are Following You... So Why Is Nothing Happening?
from The MFA Podcast
What do you do when galleries are following you, visiting your studio, complimenting your work…and then nothing happens? In this episode of The MFA Podcast, I answer a question from an artist who feels like she's doing everything right—but gallery interest hasn't turned into exhibitions, representation, or sales yet. I break down the two things I think are often missing: the practical follow-up and the inner micro-actions that shape how you build relationships in the art world. We talk about: → The simple email you can send when you finish a new artwork you think a gallery—or collector—will connect with → Why you don't always need to wait for someone else to make the next move → How your Reticular Activating System (RAS) can influence the opportunities, signals, and possibilities you notice → The tiny unconscious behaviors that can either move a relationship forward or keep you waiting → Why networking becomes much easier when you stop thinking of it as "networking" and start thinking about making friends in your industry around shared interests And I share why real-world immersion can change the way you understand—and connect with—the art world.
