SEEN

SEEN Vol. 5 — Official Announcement

SEEN Vol. 5 is now open.

SEEN is a collaborative art project exploring what it means to feel seen... in a world that so often looks away. Each volume brings together real people, real stories, and original paintings created in response to one simple question:

What does it mean to feel seen?

Vol. 5 marks a turning point for this project.

This year, SEEN will include 50 new participants. Each submission is treated with care, translated into an original eye painting, and held as part of a growing archive of lived experience. Participation does not require purchasing artwork: being witnessed is the work.

For those who choose to collect their original painting, Vol. 5 originals are offered at $350, reflecting the depth, time, and intention behind the project. 

At the conclusion of the project:

• All works will be documented in a printed book

• Unsold paintings will be donated to mental health organizations

• The collection will be shared publicly through exhibition

SEEN is not about perfection, performance, or polish.
It is about presence.
It is about being witnessed without explanation.

If this project resonates with you, SEEN Vol. 5 is an invitation to step inside it.

Applications are now open.
50 participants. One volume. One year.
