Artificial lighting serves a key role in their work, even when working outdoors. The characters of the work portray many different alternative lifestyles and are many times set in a farm-like environment. Lindemann and Shimon's punk rock roots are evident throughout the collection.

Perhaps this is the reason that the line between reality and fiction proves blurry at times when one focuses on the different pieces.
