Catalogue for the 2008 Graduating Exhibition of the University of Toronto MVS Programme in Studio Art. Essays by Helena Reckitt explore the three artists' works and their "tendency to engage with each other, albeit quietly, creating an undertone of dialogic exchange, a la Mikhail Bakhtin's ideas of the inherent interconnectedness of all language - in this case, visual language - in a web-like narrative of time and space." (quote from catalogue)
