An ongoing public art project

Released into the world. Found by someone. Carried forward.

The Finders Collection moves original art outside traditional walls. Each released painting begins a new provenance story—claimed, registered, transferred, or still waiting to be found.

THE PROJECT

Art does not need permission to matter.

Works are placed in public-facing locations as Free to Take or Free to Leave. The finder decides what happens next.
