the kids are in trouble in Heart of Hearts Journal Vol II, DISRUPT
'But upon consideration, what Koenning
offers to us in the kids is attunement,
and a deep intimacy. Her attention to
light and dark, shadow and depth draws
your attention to our shared experiences
of happiness, joy, fear and loss. Where
many of her contemporaries all too often
contrive themselves, exuding a forced
intimacy, Koenning’s is eloquent and
sincere. The photographs that comprise
the kids aren’t being presented to you,
nor exhibited - they’re being shared. The
viewer becomes the amorphous ‘you’
addressed in the accompanying text.'
