"Megan Kitchen does it again, with another collection of intriguing, strangely existential yet spiritual assemblage works, compound images that manage to haunt the senses, tickle the synapses, and provoke indefinable longing..."

"Kitchen has established herself as an artist with vision by using metaphor, found objects, and ready-made computer graphics. Her narrative and aesthetic motifs, empowered by her muse-cocktail of culture, spirituality and the archetypal feminine, steadily ripen, dialing her work in ever closer to a true representation of her inspiration."

"Some of these pieces achieve an almost preternatural serenity and loveliness... Whatever it is, it isn’t art for art’s sake: bigger questions about meaning persist as you hang around a Kitchen assemblage."

"These are beautiful pieces, endowed with provocative imagery - a satisfying melding of art and message."

"Make no mistake, the elements in Kitchen's collages are no ordinary 'found objects.' Exactingly delivered, clean and perfectly perfect, the individual units of substance that make up the work reveal a precise, analytical dreamer who mentally conjured the full resolution of these little jewel-like compositions long before she hunted down the parts to create them... With the delicate, sure hands of a seamstress or craftsperson, Kitchen has tapped into one of the most powerful actions of art. Her theaters play a worldly psychodrama that though surely personal, has been collectively formed... Kitchen's tiny stages offer entertainment for the mind and food for the soul. Greater than the sum of their parts, the complete body of work delivers something valuable beyond the issues it explores."

"The soulful heart of the show is Kitchen. Many of her multimedia collages prettily express the personal changes brought about by the impersonal advance of time... It's a melancholy portrait of the fleeting nature of life."

"Here Kitchen introduces some lovely new pieces (When the Lost Souls are Found) that seem to express an invigorated enlightenment. Kitchen's spirituality is of a contemplative, Jungian nature. Using technology as metaphor, she explores the labyrinthine passageways of metaphysics and human consciousness. These new pieces present a softened soulfulness..."
