What is an Artist Bio?

An artist bio is a third-person, factual account of an artist's career and accomplishments, while an artist statement is a first-person, personal explanation of the artist's creative process, influences, and intentions behind their work.

A short introduction that tells readers who the artist is, what they make, and why it matters.
It should give a sense of their background, themes, and current focus, without sounding overly academic or vague.
