I totally agree, and, as far as I know, Tom treats his employees quite well. What I’m getting at here is that, in the art world, the most expedient/comfortable/logical way for a worker to do a task doesn’t correlate to a competitive advantage as it might in other industries. For better worse! Artistic struggle is marketable. Consider Marina Abromovic’s “Rhythm 0” or RAE’s residence in a storefront window. Consenting, controlled discomfort can be a medium in itself.
