I'd be curious to know how the pieces are secured against damage. Does one need to put down a security deposit while they are in possession of a piece? If so, is it the full cost of the work or some %? If not, how else are the pieces secured against damage?

Great question. The renter agrees to a rental agreement, very similar to one you would see on Rent the Runway or Bag Borrow & Steal (fashion rental sites). The agreement states that they are responsible for any damage to the work. If the damage is reparable, such as a cracked frame, then the fee could be quite low and if it is not reparable the renter essentially buys the work.
