Reviews:
Deidre Kelly, The Globe and Mail, April 21, 2001
...the work is visually extravagant, emotionally complex and absurdist in a marvellously theatrical way. Bravo.

..most striking contribution...Chartier uses the inspiration of Bacon's often startling images to forge a mysterious, intriguing work with powerful emotional reverberations.
