Tom Russotti

What brought you to NYC?
Born and raised in Brooklyn.


Why are you leaving NYC?
Its hard to be objective- Ive been here most of my life so i take a lot of new york for granted so I understand people really loving the city. For me however its just not a stimulating place to be an artist anymore. There are so many amazing places in the world that I'd like to see rather than spend another predictable year in New York.


Where are you moving to?
Going nomad


Why did you choose that location?
Technology is allowing people  to move around and still have a sense of connectedness and continuity. Why not?


What will you miss LEAST about NYC?
The New York State of Mind- obsession with work and money (including within artistic communities) New York-centric attitudes, large hordes of philistine professionals and professional philistines, Fashion, and of course, the rent


What will you miss MOST about NYC?
Friends and family, Denny's Steak Pub, Pizza
