From a tiny, art-filled Paris apartment, Tahney Fosdike spends much of her time doing something deceptively difficult: finding the right words to contextualise art.

Tahney is an Australian-born, Paris-based writer, editor, and arts critic whose practice spans criticism, essays, journalism, curatorial thinking, and communications for artists and arts organisations. She has written for dozens of publications, spent time in-house at RFI / France24, serves as Art Editor at The Suburban Review, and runs Compass North, her communication studio for artists, galleries, and creative organisations.
