The entire collection is unified: the texts, the pictures and how they are presented. The poet clearly has intentions throughout…[meditations on salt] is built on this fundamental tone that is solitude and the means of a solitary being, which in some way actually ends up being solitude.
Carl Jóhan Jensen
If Wordsworth had been a photographer, Randi Ward would be his equal in talent and polar opposite in perspective. The closest she comes to a Wordsworthian image in [holdfast] is her portrait of a gnarled tree, which evokes a wizened survivor rather than anything as carefree as a daffodil.

Not only is [Randi] a gifted writer, she’s a good poet and also a talented photographer. There are excellent pictures in [meditations on salt], and they create the feeling that everyone has run away. It’s as though no one wants to be around, everyone has bolted for some reason…

We almost never see books like [meditations on salt] published in the Faroe Islands, books which so uncompromisingly dare to engage two artistic disciplines at once. Here we have a young American who writes in three different languages and works across media.

Very friendly and very curious, [Randi] has the right sensibility in terms of what makes a poet a poet. For one, she cares about people, as her education in anthropology obviously suggests. She’s also a huge participant in the ongoing struggle to link photographic imagery and meaningful lyricism together to make a unified whole.
