Talia (they/she) is an interdisciplinary artist and educator based in the Bay Area. Their current work explores lineage, trust, collaboration, dialogue, and adolescence. They work in hand and machine sewing, quilting, appliqué, and embroidery, while also exploring other media such as ceramics, photography, sound, painting, poetry, and collage. Their work often documents conversations, arranging text on fabric to represent a dialogue in some way, or orchestrating collaborative sewing projects that demonstrate a response between people through material. Like conversations, they may end, but are often picked up again at various times and places. The dialogue in her pieces often gravitates toward critical reflections and constructions around identity as it relates to systems of oppression.

The origins of her textile practice trace back to mailing her mom a piece of fabric with three yiddish words sewn onto it. This piece of fabric has been mailed back and fourth between them for over three years, with each of them spending a few months sewing on it when it is in their possession.
