"She (Bernice Kolko) sees faces as unique profiles and foreheads. But in her vision there is observation so fruitful that she makes us feel living images. This is her creation: capturing human nature, retaining its essences and expressing, protecting, the fundamentals of being. Her photography, more than technical harmony of shadow and light, is a full communion of vital principles. She imprints her own humanist conception and philosophy on photographic technique. Result: Great art in capturing and communicating emotions and realities." -- Introduction
