What is a “portfolio” in this context? If you were getting an MFA, I’d get it. But if it’s “all your work,” isn’t that just, in this day and age, a properly backed up USB stick with your papers?
Pretty much. I have a website that acts as my portfolio. Unfortunately, my computer crashed some time ago and I lost my other work but kept some important documents (and uploaded them to my website), such as my master’s thesis.
