“Doruker's unique work has combined virtuosic sculpture in wood, bronze and stone. Staging the oppositions between form and energy and object and process, she reveals the preoccupations of a philosopher. Her sculptures are darkly poetic and thoroughly engaging, inviting the viewer to complete the story implied by the clues of the ones who are leaving or staying, leading or led, protecting or protected on a journey of loneliness with secret hopes.”

“The artist's oil paintings on view are bracingly full of information. Delicately dark female figures reflect fragments of hear no evil/see no evil/speak no evil. Her paintings are created by patches of deep color with violent brushstrokes revealing gestures of claustrophobia ready to burst out of the canvas.”
