We don't want this industry to go "back to normal". so we're proposing an experiment to test a different model. What happens if you pay an artist to just…*be* an artist, in a community, full-time, for 1 year? https://strikealight.org.uk/let-artists-be-artists/

I’m worn down by the limited inroads to money that enable freelancers to make their own work. Not commissions. Before pandemic and now. Death of an artist salesman. In the rebirth how can we make it easier? What better models allow for independent experimentation and eating?
