TAKE A CLEARER QUESTION WITH YOU
Read the work.
Keep the individual visible.
These prompts organise an enquiry. They do not assess competence, establish availability or confirm a commission.
- Which individual created the work I am viewing?
- What is their current authorised contact and working context?
- What do the image credit and source actually establish?
- Which question should I ask before treating a reply as an arrangement?
