"It would be tempting to dwell at length on the variety of technical and formal issues -- her drawing and painting skills, the almost rhythmic changes in scale from one series to the next, the exacting sense of composition -- I find so impressive in Nielsen's art. But ultimately it is the startling and enigmatic quality of her imagery that is the driving force of her work. Nielsen's images are charged with unmistakable power and authenticity; their combination of mystery and humor, their delicate balance of theatricality and narrative restraint are the essence of her distinctive artistic achievement." Reference: p. 7 Ecstatic Visions and Unnatural Acts. Santa Monica Museum of Art, Santa Monica, CA. January 28 - March 26, 1995. Bookseller Inventory # 2737w
