"It´s as if we are being led into a cathedral of light and knowledge
and time immemorial. It´s enough to make you dizzy.
The dancer´s movements are an extension of the ornamentation of the
space but also epitomise its symmetry and endless perspective. She is dangerous and soft; a strange force which also affects the movements of the camera." Anna Ångström, Svenska Dagbladet, 20/4 2007
