"…lucid testimonies to the discomfort of our daily lives; examined more fully, they focus with extreme clarity on our destiny ... a monument to the present and its precariousness."

Franco Farina, Director/Curator
Palazzo Del Diamante, Ferrara, Italy

"The visual references of the works of Dyan Ditolla Grey continuously multiply with such an emotional impact…biblical salt statues, Pompeiian molds, Michaelangeleqsque prisoners, fallen soldiers in the mud, of all the trenches and all of the beaches."

Lanfranco Colombo, Director/Curator
Il Diaframma-Kodak Cultura, Milan, Italy

"…Dyan Ditolla Grey, author and originator of this form of art, creates transcending sculptures, then photographs and immortalizes them with the camera…The figures sculpted in time become traces and memory, all of it is catalyzed by the able sensitivity of the creative eye of the artist through the lens."

Il Resto Del Crlino, Ferrara, Italy

"…extraordinary 20 x 30 inch Cibachrome prints of figurative earth sculptures...a multi-aspected experience that resonates on many levels…

In combining the ancient art of sand and stone sculpture with the temporal arts of environmental earth works and photography, Ms. Grey charges the visual with the visionary."

"Her monumental figures are ephemeral; they erode and are reclaimed by the earth…in the time between their completion and ruin, Ditolla Grey stages a series of richly detailed, color-saturated photographs.

…the natural erosion of the site enhances meaning. Figures that were once whole become fragmented. And the land—from which the figures come to life—seems to bleed, as exposed veins of iron ore drip red pigment the statues.

There is a spiritual intensity between the earth, the sculptures, and the artist that communicates a wide range of social, political, and psychological concerns."
