“US/Middle East policy, military might makes right, and the health care system as big business are all candidates for brutal scrutiny in this cavalcade of social and political commentary. Adept sculptures. Fascinating use of materials. Provocative gestures.  On the whole, an impressive endeavor.”  – www.artbusiness.com

“The Klines work shines in its use of sly humor as a starting point for a discussion or commentary on the issues of our day.”  – www.resonantcity.net
