more about me
Tahney Fosdike
I’m an Aussie writer from the deserts surrounding the Murray River near Pomberuk (lands of the Ngarrindjeri people), now living in a tiny, art-filled Paris apartment with my bunny, Enzo.
Since 2013, I’ve worked in curating, programming, and communication roles at non-profit arts orgs, mostly in Naarm/Melbourne, while my freelance work has had touchpoints globally.
My writing practice spans criticism, essays and journalism in the arts and beyond; I’ve contributed to dozens of publications, including an in-house stint at French media company RFI (France24). Since 2022, I’ve served as Art Editor at The Suburban Review.
Currently, I support artists and creative organisations here at Compass North, my boutique communication studio for the arts industry, and produce a monthly arts reading list called sticky teeth.
I’m forever keen to hear about new projects and commissions, or just learning about what others are up to in the arts and media industries.
