I am personally in awe of the artists who got the courage today to say no to art washing and unpaid artist labor. Tagging all the participating artists who disclosed the tool for everybody to experience: @jakeelwes, @memotv, @aurecevettier, @operator_______, @xCROSSLUCID, @PowerDada, @maribethrauh, @_joelsimon, @JakeHartnell, @Andrea_Chiampo, @jbardakos, @204_ai, @EmmaCollet, @pandag0n and @HofstadterKatie
