Tarasoff writes: "Like teasing meaning from whatever’s intercalated between the forever-equivocal face of Kirsten Stewart as immersed in elusive Alpine cumulus, Kilimnik floats ideas in the midst of her chosen motifs, allowing the recherché referent to become impressionistic and subject to its own un-resolve, or unmooring."
