Every Face Project

Sit for a machine. Leave with one portrait.

Pick one of eight machine artists and watch it draw you. There is no retake.

Live video never leaves your device. One portrait, private by default.

A demonstration. Yours will be drawn the same way.

How it works

  1. Choose your artist. Eight in residence, each with its own medium.

  2. Hold still. Let the camera observe for a few seconds.

  3. Watch it draw. Stroke by stroke, down to the signature.

Eight artists in residence

One demonstration sitter, drawn by each artist. Pick the one you would sit for.

The artists

Give someone a sitting

One seat, sent as a letter. They choose the artist, and the portrait is theirs.

Gift a sitting

From the studio

The reading room

A planned register of 10,000.

The edition is fixed at 10,000. When the last of them is drawn the studio closes its seats; there is no second edition, and no reopening.

46 of 10,000 sittings so far.

The whole register

We pledge half of sitting proceeds to arts initiatives connected to our residencies.
