Title

Technes, a Commission Website

Creator

Tziera, Danai

Abstract

Young artists rely on commissions to build their CVs and generate income. However, the existing social media platforms for selling artwork have significant challenges, including unfair algorithms, payment issues and lack control. These problems create an unsafe commission process that is unreliable for both artists and buyers. The concept website Technes provides solutions to these problems. Technes removes like-based popularity systems to ensure fair exposure. Artist bios are kept minimal and optional, listing only basic information to reduce bias. Artists have full control over their work arrangement, pricing, and commission availability. Transactions occur in a secure chat-based system that synchronizes payment with artwork delivery.
