Model: Kari L

This work is part of The Tracy Piper's "SEEN Volume 4," the fourth iteration of a collaborative art project of 50 eye paintings that were made during the Spring of 2025. For this series, the artist organized an open call for her collectors, fans, and fellow artists to be featured as one of her models. Each participant answered the same question: What does it mean to feel seen? Each painting and response is featured in the artist’s fifth book aptly titled “SEEN Volume 4."

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO FEEL SEEN?

"To feel seen has appreciation and support built in, camaraderie and gentleness. Being seen feels like a long overdue phone call with my aunt to talk about our inherited diagnoses. Being seen feels like unzipping a protective layer that you were told you needed because everyone could see the heart on your sleeve and finally allowing that heart to breathe, realizing there are so many other people with hearts on their sleeves too. To feel seen is allowing people you love to see parts of you that make you squirm, to allow them to hold a mirror up to you. To be seen is truly a gift that I hope everyone experiences."—Kari L
