Practice & background

American animator and experimental artist Tala Rae Schlossberg brings physical materials into conversation with digital processes. Writing, composing and editing are interconnected parts of her practice.

She worked with The New York Times Opinion Video team and co-founded Two Toes Creative in 2022. Moving between commissions and independent experiments, she values projects that begin with an open question.

Her Field Studies videos have appeared internationally, including a projection on New York’s Manhattan Bridge. Her early miniseries You Have Probably Never Heard of Hornita Calypso screened at NFFTY; her practice also includes visuals for musical performances.

Looking at the work

Animation connects her writing, drawing, editing and sound, revealing strange and absorbing moments within everyday life.
