Life happens in layers.
Love layered on top of loss.
Happiness layered on top of sadness.
Moments that mean everything layered on top of the ordinary of everyday.
 
Seen Never Seen explores these layers with a depth of perspective and beauty by blending the visions of two artists from different disciplines with completely different approaches. Creating from opposite coasts of the country, Grismer &amp; Jones combine the technique of analog multiple exposures with visual storytelling.
 
Chris Grismer is a director who’s worked on shows such as Queer as Folk, Orphan Black, Killjoys and Sea Change to name a few. His approach to filmmaking and photography is infinitely experimental yet technical.
 
Raymond McCrea Jones is a photographer who began his career working at The New York Times and now shoots for publications around the world. His blend of intimate portraiture and reportage are infused with a documentary sensibility at heart.
 
With absolute freedom unconstrained by conventional obligations, the two artists embarked on a journey to capture layers breathing life into one another.
 
Beginning in September 2015, with photography ongoing, Grismer and Jones began by shooting rolls of 35mm film. They then traded that film, exposed over each other’s photographs and deliberately did not talk about the content of what they were photographing.
 
The result is an organic meeting of the minds by two artists distant from one another yet somehow eerily tuned to the same creative wavelength.
 
NOTE: Grismer and Jones plan for this work to have its debut exhibition in 2017 and are currently seeking gallery representation. Thank you for your consideration.

Many photographic artists are creating side projects with a fellow artist or writer, and the results can often be unexpected</p>
