When creative partnerships compromise their values for financial stability

My creative partner and I keep getting offered projects from companies whose politics we disagree with, but the money is really good and we have student loans. We started this collaboration to make art that matters, but we're finding ourselves rationalizing why this pharmaceutical company or that tech firm is 'not that bad' when we need to pay rent.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Partners face the ongoing tension between artistic integrity and economic necessity in a system that rewards moral flexibility.
