Aidan Dunne commented on Brunker's work from this period saying, "...In Linda Brunker's elegant sculptures, masses of natural forms, from leaves to starfish, bear the imprint of human, usually female, heads and bodies. They are emblematic of the structural patterns that connect not just living things but all forms on all scales, from microscopic to cosmic. The work is technically impeccable and often ingenious..."
