Each piece is exquisite in composition and construction with wit and satire underscoring each theme" by the Canadian Craft Museum, some of Barbara Klunder's works on display here from her exhibition will prove of great interest to those wishing to look at emotionality in works that usually do not display them to this level in both expertise and emphasis.
