"Your work...brought us to tears, so beautiful, powerful, and relevant to the times in which we find ourselves."

“…a serious, engaging exercise in minimalist dance abstraction”

-Elizabeth Bachner, Offoffoff.com

“Bartosik and her extraordinary collaborators have crafted a compelling work, a captivating experience that is physically expressive, musically dreamy, and visually stunning, and from which many levels of meaning and feeling can be derived.”

-Brian McCormick, Mediatized
