"These are two mature artists who are confident both in their talent and in the integrity of their inner world. They almost always choose an expressive brutality involving extreme trials they undergo in which they ostensibly lose themselves, negate themselves. Each is a distinguished, powerful artist and still they let go of the ego to create something together that is alive and whole.
‘Land Slugs’ is bold, its images overwhelm the retina, sending themselves directly to the subconscious, aggressive, hypnotic, creating only one way to see them: a consumerist gaze devoid of logic, helpless.”

"Not only was their commitment to the piece apparent in their bodies, but in all aspects of their execution as well, which was straightforward, direct and bold. Ostensibly, nothing happens in the piece apart from them advancing, but seeing it provokes thoughts about public space, the way it reflects us as a society, the indifference and apathy with which we treat each other, the place of women in this space, and the possibility that art affords to envision this space differently.”
