“Of Shadows is intriguing. The positioning of the subjects doesn’t detract from their mysterious nature and yet conveys a great deal of objective information. The captions are very informative and help to add to the experience of viewing these unique pieces.” Lens Culture
“Creepy and brilliant” London Review Bookshop
