What you get
Four things on every project, more on request.
Curated and documented
Every work is curated for the workplace and comes with a Cultural Passport: the tradition, the artist's voice and the curatorial context.
Named artists, direct relationships
Artists working in living cultural traditions, today mostly Nigerian, Ghanaian, Ugandan and African Diaspora, each named on the work with the tradition they declare.
Multi-site capability
One Master Services Agreement, a Statement of Work per site and staged production, with installation coordinated with your team at every location.
Artist economics you can audit
55% profit share to artists, documented per project. For procurement teams that review supply-chain economics, the numbers are available on request.

Questions
What documentation comes with each project?
A Cultural Passport for every work, artist biographies, and the Master Services Agreement with a Statement of Work per site. Collector works add a digital certificate of authenticity; Limited and Signature works a signed one.
Can you work with our art consultant?
Yes. The consultant usually owns curation and project management; we provide named-artist sourcing, archival production, Cultural Passports and coordinated installation.
Can a program span several offices?
Yes. One MSA covers every office, with a Statement of Work per site and staged production for coordinated installs.
Why a 50% deposit?
It secures production capacity and the artists' commitment to your dates. The balance is paid in two milestones, each after your written approval.
What if a work arrives damaged?
Every work is checked with your team at delivery and acceptance. Anything damaged in transit is replaced under the project's Master Services Agreement.
