Taxali was featured in the "Blab Show" at Track 16 Gallery in Santa Monica's Bergamot Station arts complex, a landmark group exhibition drawn from the pages of BLAB!, Monte Beauchamp's influential illustration anthology. The show brought together artists whose work defined the publication's celebrated fusion of fine art, comics, and narrative illustration, and Taxali's inclusion reflected his standing as a regular BLAB! contributor and a key figure in the movement it championed.
