Artist Statement:
My interest in photography lies principally in exploring moments that are undefined. I am fascinated when a dialog emerges from what appears to be the simplest of moments from states of uncertainty and transience. A raw and unpretentious moment can reveal complexities, evoke imagined histories, and hidden truths.

Tal has spent several years studying & shooting in Tel-Aviv, Prague & Europe after graduating from The Minneapolis College of Art and Design (Honors),with a B.F.A. degree in Photography/Media Art (Honors).
