"Debbie Fleming Caffery's images can be seen as articles of faith. The relentless insistence of subject and symbol in these images is assuredly their greatest strength. This vigor results from a tension that can be both visual and emotional. In this marshy no-man's-land between description and illusion, her photographs serve as an able guide to truths that are better sensed than seen” (John Lawrence).
