Review Quotes: "Influenced by traditional Chinese painting, she captures the world's metamorphoses, tracing the impermanence of forms and the memory of places--particularly in China, where she has been photographing since the 1980s. Her gaze, both precise and contemplative, transforms each image into a visual meditation, balancing documentary insight with poetic abstraction."-- "The Eye of Photography"
