  "Look at the work of Incognito Nom de Plume; you will be reminded that we are mortal beings. Incognito portrays this reality with a surreal elegance that is more a continuum than a duality. Journey to her world and consider another “side” of beauty."

  "They speak of death. How brief is life. The saddest photos I know. And yet, they are so full of life and hope at the same time. How can this be?"

  "being a good photographers often seems to be simply an exercise in the familiar combined with the endeavour of dusting off a credit card or three. there are many excellent pics on flickr but so many are cold, bereft of love and soul and feeling. and then again there are many great pics but their subjects are familiar or fortuitous. inky conquers here with a vision of poetry that bridges these gaps showing the truth through the incidental moments, the forgotton and discarded.
  
  i luv em."

  "Photographing the the inhuman post disaster of New Orleans with such strength of character to maintain an artistic & contemporary edge is more than special, as for the Museum of Dust - I'm hooked...!"

  "As individual photographs these are great - such a good eye for texture and mood, but also each one seems to add to an overall aesthetic. Naturally, trying to maintain an even keel of pretension, I use words like 'aesthetic' with the greatest reluctance but it seems appropriate - the feeling is very much of someone recording the world in a very particular way. And it's a wonderful record of a fascinating world. I like it very much."

  "Incognita nom de plume is one of the most enigmatic figures in the maverick world of shifting identities, spurious assumed names and quirky artistic visions that is flickr. She has chosen the long neglected but universal theme of dust and explores it with a lyricism that never falters. Arid and unforgiving landscapes, disintegrating buildings and desolate forgotten monuments, lonely stone animals that no-one believes in any more, unnoticed sculptures in corners of museums unseen by tourists, articulated skeletons seen as if by moonlight and sepulchral but touching cemetery scenes- these are her subjects. Again and again the unspoken message of these beautiful images is-"unto me you came and unto me you shall return"."

  "There was dust on the shelves. There was dust on the lampshades. On the floor, on the stacks of old newspapers that were everywhere in the musty wooden cabin, on the plate and silverware that had been placed so carefully on the dusty table. A casual observer might never have guessed that Evelyn lived there, or thought she did."
