Introducing: The Seen Mentor Prize

Updated: April 1, 2025 - Applications are now closed!

If you missed this round, don’t worry—we’ll be doing it again soon! Stay tuned for that. In the meantime, if you’re an artist looking to get your work Seen, make sure you’re on the waitlist for the Get Seen Guide.

About the Seen Mentor Prize

I want to see your work. No, seriously—I want to see what you’ve been working on, what excites you, and how we can take your career to the next level.

That’s why I created Seen—to connect with artists, hear their stories, and help them navigate the art world. Every month, I sit down for 1:1 consults with artists, and they are hands down one of my favorite things to do. I love giving guidance, offering insights, and helping artists make meaningful career moves.

But here’s the thing—at £200 per session, these consults aren’t accessible to everyone. And I hate that. I want to be able to offer this kind of support to more artists, without the price tag being a barrier.

Enter: The Seen Mentor Prize

This isn’t just another art prize that costs an arm and a leg to apply for, only to leave you wondering what it actually did for your career. (You know the ones I’m talking about…)

The Seen Mentor Prize is different. It’s not your typical art competition. It’s not about prestige for the sake of it. It’s about mentorship, visibility, and real career growth. It’s designed for artists who are just one step away from breaking into the art world but need a little guidance to get there.

And that’s exactly what you’ll get.

If Your Work is Selected, Here’s What’s in Store:

🎨 A Complimentary 1:1 Consult with Me

You’ll get a full hour with me, where we’ll dive deep into your work, career strategy, and next steps. My consults are normally reserved for Seen members, but the Seen Mentor Prize is open to everyone. (And if you are a Seen member, you’ll get a discount on your application fee.)

📢 A Feature in Seen’s ‘Have You Seen?’ Series

Your work—and your story—will be showcased in our interview series, giving you extra exposure and visibility within the art world.

👀 Your Work Shared with the Seen Network

Collectors, curators, and art world professionals will see your work. That means direct access to the kind of people who want to buy from and collaborate with emerging artists like you.

📖 The Get Seen Guidebook

If I ever finish it (working on it, I promise), you’ll also receive this guide full of actionable advice to keep your momentum going after our consult.

Take your career to the next level.
