Statement

Raised by an Israeli father and an American mother in a counterculture stronghold in rural Northern California, her early influences include outlaw marijuana culture,  “hippie” ideologies, her Waldorf education, trauma, queerness, French and drag queen aunties, and so many left wing boho Israeli and American Jews. Her years of practice code-switching between rural and urban, blue and white collar cultural spaces continues to inform her work today. Her widely published project ”West County” explores post-adolescent relations in the Northern California community where she grew up.Talia’s work is considered and intimate.
