F.A.Q.

HOW DOES FREE ART WORK?

The artwork is $0.

You only pay shipping.

There are three shipping categories:

SMALL — $20

MEDIUM — $40

LARGE — $60

And shipping is charged ONCE per size category, regardless of how many pieces you take from that category.

Art is free.

How much you take is up to you.

 

WHY FREE ART?

I’M FREE

For years, I’ve created in the hopes someone would decide whether what I created was “worth it.”

People determine value.

So I’m removing mine.

Every artwork available on caemonae.com is $0.

Art is free. 

You only pay the cost of getting it home.

Yes, it's:

An experiment in value.

An experiment in access.

An experiment in ownership.

But,

I believe expression should be accessible enough to find a home.

You decide what it means.

You decide where it belongs.

The artwork is free because expression is free.

 

SIZING: 

Tees & Shirts are Classic Fit, meaning, square-cut with equally aligning bust to waist. The dresses have a classic dress form which provides a slimmer waist with fuller space for the bust and hips.

It is my top priority, to ensure accessibility to sizes for all. 

HAND-PAINTED APPAREL:

• Each item is one of one. You are the only person who owns it in the world. 
• These items are wearable art — you can wear them or archive them.
• All items can be machine-washed and dried. Please use all available gentle settings. For increased longevity, please hand-wash and/or air-dry.
