What is the presence of a horse worth to a human being? Is that value enough to respect its natural existence?
Every horse belongs in the world. We want to help make that possible.

Gallery rules.
The archive begins with the first minutes sent. Filters appear once there is something to filter.
We publish them as they arrive, from wherever they arrive.
The minute has a fixed shape, so that it can be recognised anywhere.
One minute
Exactly. Not fifty seconds, not two.
One horse
One being. Not a herd shot, not a montage.
One shot
Continuous, if the horse allows it. No cuts.
No music. No talking. No explanation. No titles across the horse. Nothing added to help you feel something.
If you send a film with other people in it, everyone recognisable has to agree to it being published, and a parent or guardian has to agree for anyone under 18. The same applies to someone else's horses.

Horse Presence is exploring whether the value people find in the presence of horses can help sustain the places where horses live. We don't know the answer yet. You can help us find out.
Help us create more places where horses can live freely or semi-freely, and where people and nature can flourish together.
We welcome individuals, private donors, companies, and governmental institutions who share our vision of a balanced society that values life, and a living Earth rich in soil, diversity, and possibilities.
Would you like to help us carry true stories like this one into the world?
Horse Presence connects the dots: people all over the world for whom a horse matters simply because it lives, as the animal it is. On our map, their stories become visible.

What you are invited to
To stand beside a question while it is still only a question: whether the time people spend with horses can help keep a place for them. Not to buy anything, and not to watch from the outside.
What happens next
Your name goes in the book with the number of the order you arrived. When the account opens we write to you once, plainly, and say what a contribution pays for.
What is owed
Nothing. Putting your name down commits you to no amount, no date and no obligation of any kind. You can ask to be taken out at any moment and we take you out, without asking why.
Two things are needed below. The rest is only if you want to tell us.
