The first painting Carl Vant made for Aurén Monét is a self-portrait — but not the kind you'd expect. He's not looking at us. He's looking through a camcorder, recording his own reflection, caught in the strange loop of watching yourself be watched.

It's the piece that gave the brand its name: someone permanently mid-motion, never quite finished being seen. Art in motion, before Aurén Monét had the words for it.
