I have a question about the concept of hiring artists and sourcing from factories in China.
What does Instapainting do—in terms of due diligence—to ensure safe working conditions and fair labor practices for workers in the factories that make the product?
- chrischen 10y agoWe're just a marketplace, like Etsy or Ebay behind the scenes. That being said, I have personally visited many of the sellers and for advanced products such as highly detailed portrait paintings (the ones sold on Instapainting.com), the artists always work from their home and are independent contractors. It's only for large quantity mass replica work that are actually done in factories, and I've visited those factories as well, however they do not provide the detailed portraits type of work.
- dilemma 10y agoDid you also ask Tesla and SpaceX about what they do to ensure humane working conditions? I've worked in a studio/factory in China and visited plenty; from what I've read, they're far better than SpaceX.
