Using collage and photography as a form of resistance to educate about the adoptee narrative and what it means to be an adoption survivor, Talon does not make art only for commercial consumption. She makes art to be the change she wishes to see through the lens of social justice. At the intersection of identity, lack of ancestry, adoptee sovereignty and abolition, through her practice she invites critical inquiry of white saviorism’s role in transnational, transracial adoption. Therefore, her work is not just a collage; it is a catalyst, an attestation, and the power of transformation.
