A boutique agency for art spaces & creative practitioners

After I met Tahney, I quickly became an admirer of her unique writing style, diverse experience of the artworld and by how knowledgeable and culturally aware she was. She developed a press pack with photographic imagery (digital & 35mm) and produced a short film for our residency programmes. She was communicative, pragmatic and patient – setting realistic timelines and meeting them. If you want to work with someone dynamic, who is invested in your project and gives 110% and is super professional, diligent and always offering more and thinking outside the box, I would highly recommend!

We worked with Compass North ahead of the release of a new design rooted in the history and culture of Paris. They really hit the nail on the head, the tone and content were captivating. We are thrilled with the magic Tahney brings to her work.

I never could have written with such objectivity about myself.

I am pleased and impressed by the beauty of Tahney’s writing style. The documents she worked on with me in the lead up to my EP release are incredible! I am very happy with the elements that she chose to include as well as with the way she chose to write about them. I love the rhythm and flow of the texts also: the narrative and dynamics within were stunning, and the way she crafted sentences really impressive. I feel lucky to have worked with her at Compass North!

Tahney is definitely a word artist, a truly empathic and committed professional. Based on my idea and brief she moulded a beautiful description for my artwork to apply for multiple festivals. Highly recommended!

It's an absolute pleasure working with Compass North for our social media management. As someone who has always wanted to work with a content specialist in the arts arena, Tahney has been a godsend. She's very professional and knows exactly how to approach the artistic world and cater to the audience. Her attention to detail and delivery skills on the scope of work is commendable and I look forward to continuing to work with her and Compass North in the future.
