This week, Jesse sat down with Toronto-based artist Taiga Bentley, Owner/Director of Olga Korper Gallery and Founder of the Reframe Arts Fellowship, an immersive arts and culture experience in Israel for Canadian professionals in the visual arts space, in partnership with StandWithUs Canada.

Jesse and Taiga discuss the connection between art and Judaism, how October 7th changed her worldview, and how it inspired her to share her Jewish pride and push back against antisemitism. Taiga also reflects on how, in the aftermath of that day, many in the art world were not welcoming toward pro-Israel perspectives, and how antisemitism has increasingly taken hold in creative communities.
