Abstract (English)"On the one hand, her films and photographs present a sheer sensuality of surface which enfolds the viewer in a kind of empathetic luminesence- a human warmth, conveyed through light and texture; on the other, as the works maintain their narrative course, frequently enigmatic, often shot through with delicate tracery of post-modern allergory, the viewer can be left with a sepulchral chill ; what is the soul journey of these handsome, frail, self-immobilizing figures, caught in some sort of dream between fantasy and trauma?" -- Michael Bracewell, page 228.
