Tahlia Sisney

I’m an art advisor, curator, and writer based in New York City, working across contemporary art, editorial storytelling, and cultural programming. I grew up around art and antiquities, which shaped the way I think about collecting. Not just as ownership, but as a reflection of identity, memory, and personal taste. Over time, that perspective evolved into a practice centered on helping people engage with art in a way that feels natural, informed, and emotionally connected. I founded “The Art Girl” as a way to bridge the more traditional side of the art world with the pace and accessibility of digital media. Through advisory, writing, and curation, I focus on making contemporary art feel less intimidating and more conversational, especially for younger and first-time collectors. I’m interested in creating experiences around art that feel thoughtful and culturally relevant while still grounded in history and connoisseurship. Right now, I’m focused on growing the editorial and advisory side of my practice through writing, digital content, and collaborations that connect art with broader conversations in fashion and culture. A lot of my work revolves around translating the art world into something people can genuinely connect with and see themselves participating in, I think that’s the best way to build great collections.
