Review

"The juxtapositions are exceptional... Of course I like the real people having sex, and to put them next to these other biological forms is really original and leads one's imagination to places it hasn't been..." Richard Prince (about Sexual Selection, 12/2011)

"Her eerily intimate depictions of fucking and sucking transcend smut. Even literate smut." Rolling Stone (about Digital-Diaries, 2000)

"What is interesting about Natacha is her notion of her own tumescent sense of self and sexuality." Dazed and Confused

"Merrit's eerily intimate depictions of fucking and sucking transcend smut. Even literate smut." -- Rolling Stone
