"Stockholder is a pioneer of multimedia genre-bending installations...Her
site-specific interventions and autonomous floor and wall pieces have been
describes as "paintings in space"...Her work is energetic, cacophonous and
idiosyncratic...Stockholder's installations, sculptures, and collages affirm
the primacy of pleasure, the blunt reality of things, classical order/intuitive
expressionism, conscious thought/unconscious desire."
