The most effective way to affect positive change is to amplify underrepresented voices. Tal has collaborated with Democracy in Colour, Minus18, The Pacific Climate Warriors, and Youth Affairs Council Victoria to create four textile banners, each one transmitting an important message from their organisation.  

The purpose of power is to give it away. Tal’s banners function as a call to action: support the work, support the organisations that helped create it, pay your power forward. 

Tal will be releasing one banner a day between 27 – 31 May.

27 MAY: Independent banner, Know Your Worth
28 MAY: Democracy in Colour
29 MAY: Youth Affairs Council Victoria
30 MAY: Pacific Climate Warriors
31 MAY: Minus18
