Bear Kirrkpatrick's recent Boston exhibition, The Human Diorama, was reviewed by Edie Bresler in the September/October 2015 edition of Photograph Magazine.  Bresler underlines Kirkpatrick's ability to reveal believable parallel realities.  The review mentions the Artist's personal heritage, touches on layered visual influences, and summarizes the overall primal tone of the wok.  There is something strange yet inherent to Kirkpatrick's portraits.
