The studio is committed to both precision craftsmanship and financial transparency, and in this lecture Hussaini will address often-overlooked aspects of creative labor, examining both visible and invisible contributions to the work. Hussaini will also explore the complexities of quantifying artistic efforts and challenge the traditional taboo surrounding the financial motivations of artists, acknowledging that creative expression and earning a living are intrinsically linked.
