Artifact

Artifact opens the doors to every artist’s studio by providing an online home for their creations, stories & professional journeys. Our mission is to support every fine artist with the skills, tools, and opportunities to launch their careers straight out of university.

For this reason, we've built a digital ecosystem that builds bridges between fine artists, universities and industry professionals. That means that any artist on Artifact can connect with new audiences, build a network and get discovered, with full control at every step.

With a special focus on recently graduated artists in the most vulnerable stage of their careers, Artifact helps academic institutions and residencies create online galleries of all their student showcases. This gives these institutions a tool to document every piece of art that emerged from their walls while allowing students to build their own profiles and portfolios that are connected directly to the art world.

Our approach to art online is unique and comprehensive. Discovering art online is an indispensable resource for today's artists to get noticed, and we want to make that experience as meaningful and close to the real thing as possible. By incorporating the voice of the artist in the experience, you can rekindle that intimate connection that often gets lost when exploring art digitally. Artifact’s portfolio tool allows artists to map the ideas, moments, people and places connected to their work in one place, in their own words. Being able to control how their work is seen and understood online puts the power of context back into the hands of the artist and helps the public experience their work more deeply and meaningfully.

A connected art industry will empower art professionals and artists of all stripes, uncovering unique opportunities and exchanges in various pockets around the world. When art is open to being understood, more people will experience its magic and take their first steps into this strange and wonderful universe. Resolving the fragmented and inefficient world of independent art websites, Artifact is an essential for the art industry, acting as a portfolio tool, professional network and global art catalog all in one.

Artists

• We're here to serve you and take some of the weight off of your shoulders. We want you to have one place to put all your work so you can create your own brand and tell your story. This will make it easier for your work to be discovered, searched, and appreciated rather than hard to find or connect with.

Universities & Residencies

• Your shows are critical for your students to get discovered and for your institution to show off everything it has to offer to future students or potential partners. Use Artifact to create a digital version of all your student shows, with their own webpages on our ecosystem connected to the rest of the art world.

Art Advisors and Curators

• Searching for artists is difficult when their work is dispersed across different platforms or certain elements of it go unrecorded. Artifact brings the latest generation of artists together so you can find the right artist with a more powerful search than on any other platform.

Galleries & Exhibitors

• Your exhibitions are carefully curated, to not only engage the public but also interest your clients. Artifact allows you to share the story and significance of the work through advanced art profiles with your visitors and client, digitally and physically, with no added effort.
