FEELING SEEN is guest curated by Jenna Eady as part of our Curate for the Community series.

Our sense of feeling goes beyond the physical – it’s emotional, atmospheric, and relational. It’s through these feelings that we connect with one another on a deeper level.

FEELING SEEN is about exploring how photography can express both internal and external sensations – whether it’s the rush of anticipation, the dis/comfort of the body, nostalgia of memory or tension of conflict. This project believes in photography’s power to evoke real emotional resonance. Its about creating the space for others to feel something.

The project aims to amplify diverse voices and create opportunities for new perspectives in photography. Growing from a desire to embrace a raw, inclusive, and emotionally open process, we hope to empower others to do the same.

The photographers featured in FEELING SEEN are:

Carli Adby-Notley, Tara Bucklow, Waldo Burke-Kennedy, Alice Chapman, Po Lam Chau, Viktoria Chikalo, Jaina Cipriano, Michael Croghan, Liz Cumberland, Marina Dego, Nicola Di Nella, Benni Giammari, Mango Collins, Karen Hazelton, Claire Maxfield, Frankie McAllister, Nadia Meli, Shinobu Motokawa, Esther Okon, Ann Petruckevitch, Clair Robins, John Savoia, Emily June Smith, Rebecca Soliman, Jinni Sur, Maisie Wilson, and Almu Zambrana.
